Although it hasn’t felt like it lately with our endless lockdown, life is full of magic. And this month promises to bring some of that back because restrictions are finally easing here in Sydney!
We’ll get to see other people again, get out of our suburb and perhaps even travel. I’m so ready.
October also brings Halloween, which is kind of bittersweet. On the one hand, it’s Lauren’s favourite holiday and I love how she waits for it with such anticipation. But on the other hand, I’ll have to explain yet again why we can’t take her trick or treating.
She doesn’t really understand what’s happening, although ‘everyone is getting sick’ is now a well-used phrase in her vocabulary. It breaks my heart that this is her childhood, like I’m sure it does for every other parent raising a kid during the pandemic.
I’m wracking my brains to try and find ways to make Halloween enjoyable for her even though we won’t get to knock on doors and mingle with the neighbours. If you have any brilliant ideas, please send them my way and I wish you a magical, fun-filled October!
