so we took cassidy trick-or-treating for the first time this year. she was dressed as fa mulan. at first she was a bit tentative as if she was thinking, “why are you making me go to a stranger’s house?” but she soon got the hang of it realizing that these strangers were giving her… candy!
after we went to 5 or 6 houses, she was ready to go home (back to her fa mulan house). at one point, we bypassed her own house toward which she pointed saying, “mommy! that’s my fa mulan house!” she then saw a group of kids walking up our driveway, and she said, “mommy. those kids is going to my fa mulan house?”
i said, “yes.”
pause. cassidy says, “they going to play with my babies?”
i said, “oh! no, cassidy, they’re going to go trick-or-treating like you, and get some candy from daddy.”
cassidy says, “oh. ok.” another pause. “it’s my daddy.”
