NOAH & STELLA

So, my (/our, Noah) mom just called me.

NIALL

Hey.

I love you. A lot.

Dear Lucy,

Karma kicked me right in the ass for all that shit-talking I was doing yesterday. I got suckered in by the Christmas display at Bath & Body Works today. I don't even like Bath & Body Works! What is happening to me? I have betrayed Halloween. I don't deserve these fun drinks I made up. :(

Coming up with a Halloween costume for Andre has been easy the last 3 times, since he was too young to have an opinion. His mom and I picked something cute, and that was that.

This year he has opinions. At first I'm thinking, great, he'll be a dinosaur. Or Daniel Tiger, or Elmo.

Then, out of nowhere, he says he wants to be Black Panther. He hasn't seen the movie, but he has his heart set on it, and all I keep thinking is at least he's not going as the subject of someone else's dreams.
