Halloween Costume Party

We went to a kids' costume party this weekend at the house of our friends Hilary and Jonathan.

There were lots of kids in costumes, and of course, Paprika wore her favorite dress- her Snow White dress.

Paprika's going through a thing now where she gets really pensive and likes being alone sometimes. She'll say, "Mommy, go in the other room please." Of course, I go in the other room and then watch her like a hawk through the door crack. It's just her asserting her independence, I guess.

So, I wasn't surprised at the party when I spotted Paprika far away from the other guests, lost in thought:



She returned to the party soon afterwards, ready to play!
