Seeing Things in Black and White

Because elephants are Reed’s favorite animal at this time, Beni picked up a pachydermous getup for him for this year’s Halloween. However, he’s refused to take the thing out of the trunk, if you will, having repeatedly told us that he won’t wear it today, tomorrow, or any day. I’d like to think that this means that he’s already rejected the Republican Party, but I’ll admit that this thinking is wishful fantasy. In fact, his favorite float from the recent parade we attended was the one that featured a giant elephant, which was sponsored by—you guessed it—the local Republican headquarters.

Reed recently settled on the cow costume that his sister wore five years ago, which is a good thing with Halloween around the corner and his school’s costume parade happening over lunch today. Our cow poked his way along the route and eventually made his way into the loving arms of his moo-my. (Sorry—that pun stinks worse than spoiled milk.)
