Trick or Treat

Trick or treating in the hospital is a bigger deal than I had expected. Everyone gets out and makes some sort of a visit. In wheelchairs, strollers or somehwere in between there was a true parade of costumed kids going through the hospital this morning.

Ellie started out her morning as a loster with her mom the chef. They told us that if we carried her around in a pot that they would have to call child services, but we thought about it.


She was joined by her monkey friend Christian and his Mom:
After a little while, the little lobster started to get cooked and we switched costumes.

A fisherman and the catch of the day:

Damn! What a bunch of cute pictures. Gib and Abby: you, too! I was telling someone today about how you all are the most amazing family I know. I've been such a slug about getting to Boston for another visit - I am so grateful to you for letting us all stay in touch through the blog.

I'm getting a steady stream of trick-or-treaters at my new home in Saratoga Springs. I want to tell all the parents and their little ones that the REAL party is at Children's.

Love and hugs,
Barbara
