These little girls are so full of joy. We decided to take the kids around the cul-de-sac for trick-or-treating, and then have them help us hand out candy. This was something I wrestled with, for I know the many arguments against it. After wrestling with it, I was so glad we did it. We got to meet so many of the neighbors, and spent time talking with them. Our neighborhood is known to be a good place to go, so we got lots of visitors, and ended up talking with many of the parents as we sat on the front porch. The girls did a great job of handing out candy, and only handed it to us to hand out when the really scary people came around :) Most of our guests were little kids and parents, and we saw many fairies, princesses and super heros. And the girls loved it, and did a great job of being generous. What an opportunity we would have missed, and we look forward to seeing these neighbors again. What a unique community God has placed us in! Many people who have no family around and are desperate for community. What an opportunity! Now just to get to work!
