Such simple times are now behind me. And so, this year things are more complex. All decisions are made by a 4 year old Big girl.
Till a week back, we were all absolutely sure it was going to be an Elsa Halloween for us. I had started looking for an Elsa costume for me. The little girl already had one since several months back (her Jinu aunty had gifted the whole ensemble to her).
But then, new, previously unrealized options appeared on the Halloween horizon. Daddy suddenly surprised the little girl with a tinkerbell costume! And suddenly it started looking like it will be a tickerbell Halloween for us. Just as I was going to look for tinkerbell costumes for me, a new option loomed.
Yesterday when I asked the little girl what she wants to be on Halloween I got this:
"A Zombee".
We never watch any zombie movies or tv at home or talk about it. Where did she see or hear about zombies?! Then she volunteered clarification. When I asked her what a zombie is, she said it a buzzing bee, but it's very big in size, so it's called a zom-bee!
What does it look like, you wonder? It has yellow and black stripes. That's a zombee!
We laughed and laughed; and briefly I wondered how I would do inside a big buzzing bee costume. And then I hoped the zombee wave would die down soon!!
