To start tonight's Halloween festivities, we headed over to the church for Trunk-or-Treat. He enjoyed gathering goodies but we got pretty cold and headed home before it was over.
At home, we had people knocking on our door, and this is when things got really fun for Reed!
This precious boy got so excited as the ghouls and goblins called out "Trick-or-Treat" that he opened the door and let them have candy out of his own loot bag!
I showed him our stash of stuff to give away, but each time he heard a knock, he opted to give from his own until it dwindled away to nothing.
The joy on his face was the kind that only comes from selfless giving. His glow lit up the Halloween night!
It may have only been matched by my glow as a proud mom watching this innate sense of happiness derived from making others happy!
