pumpkins for my pumpkins

Tonight we're carving pumpkins. It's an annual tradition for our family at this time of year. I bought four pumpkins to carve. I also got two little ones for the front steps, one for each boy. The bigger pumpkin for Dylan, I was going to add a "tattoo" design of witch Hazel from Looney Tunes, but it wouldn't work. So my hubby is carving it. I felt like crying when he started it, so I came in the bedroom to take a break for a couple minutes. I like to set an example for Brandon that we will always include his brother who lives in heaven, in whatever we do, whenever possible. Anyone who asks about the pumpkins , I will share with them who made them, and who they're for. Brandon drew his design free handed, so did Steve, for his own and for Dylan's. For mine I used an intricate pattern which is considered challenging and it IS! It's an alien, who is kind of funky looking. I just have a little more to do and it will be done. They'll all be placed on the front steps with battery operated lights inside. Just another day in the life of an angel mommy.
