Happy Halloween

Cate really got into Trick-or-Treating this year. She marched right up to the door, said, "Trick or Treat," and as she was leaving said, "Thank you for the candy." She loved being an angel since it was very much like being a princess. The halo was quickly ditched (probably appropriately - ha) but the wings were her pride and joy. She kept asking if she could fly, and Lindsay and I kept saying, "Just pretend":) We only went to five neighbors, but Cate was happy and enjoyed every minute. And, oh yes, it was only 36 degrees outside. I kind of felt like we should be singing Christmas carols:)

Catching up

After my dear mother's death on Sept 7, 2010, I put aside blogging for awhile. Her memorial service was on Sept 25, and I spent the following week in Ohio with my sisters. Now I'm back in Maine; and although my heart is filled with sadness, our dear sweet Cate keeps me smiling.

At Mom's memorial service Cate whispered to Lindsay, "Can we dance now?" I'm sure Mom was smiling:)
Cate is our dancing girl and to prove my point, here is a video of her dancing to her latest favorite DVD: The NYC Rockettes Christmas Spectacular.
