Someone with @WittyUserName posted a similar image as a reply. This struck a deep chord with me. Not Deja Vu, more like I said this sentiment to myself countless times. I seem to look for that event that will force my hand.
About an hour ago a White guy from our neighborhood rang our doorbell. He tells me that he doesn't have his son for Halloween, so he is taking him around the neighborhood tonight. His son, dressed as Scooby-Doo is roughly the same age as my middle child.
Lucky for them, my wife chose to get Halloween candy a week ago. I grab the bag and my wife asks who was at the door. Told her the scenario and she seemed annoyed that someone would trick-or-treat on an unofficial day.
The kid ended up grabbing two Twizzelers and gave me a grin. Dad was grateful and shook my hand.
Maybe its just a guy or dad thing...good on him for trying to make fun memories with his son. Shoe on the other foot, I surely would not want some bitchy response while trying to do something special for my kids.
