Halloween has simply turned into a wonderful time for mommy and daughter to be creative. It wasn't until a couple of years ago, right before Sofia turned three that we began putting her in costume. And the reason we did was because Sofia gave us inspiration.
That first year we dressed her as a mouse. The inspiration was her facial expressions. Sofia would crinkle up her nose and mouth and so we went with it.
Last year Sofia knew she wanted to be a Christmas present from November 1 on. Don't ask us where she got this idea but she stuck with it and we had a lot of fun last year putting this together.
This year was a bit more difficult. Sofia kept changing her mind. One day she wanted to be a chocolate chip cookie, the next day a princess. One day she even said, "Mommy, why don't I just be myself for Halloween."
About a week ago, Sofia gave us the inspiration for this year's costume. She kept walking around the house in this certain character. She had the voice, the arm movement, and the walk.
So this year she was a....ROBOT!!!!
And Selah. Let's just say it wasn't worth the tears. Maybe next year Selah.
