The day after a very busy Halloween, Nick and Madeline beat me downstairs, with Nick eager to see what the Halloween Fairy had left for them. By the time I got to the living room, he was already reading Madeline her new book and picking out favorite pictures in his new drawing book.
Seeing the two of them sitting there together, enjoying their small gifts … and each other … it doesn’t get much better than that.
I love that you guys have a Halloween fairy. And then I also love that it brings books instead of candy or toys. And also that your kids love it!
That’s new, never heard of the Halloween fairy. Great idea and a way to get your kids to read.
Joanne – lol, me too! ‘Tis a good tradition.
Ramona – They both love books, so that was the perfect thing for the Halloween Fairy to bring in exchange for their candy. :)
That is so sweet!
