Tolerating Hotdog

20171031-hotdog.jpg

Six costume stores.

No pizza costumes his size or that she thinks he will tolerate.

Mama feels like she failed.

She shoulda made one.

Guessing Dublin is a jedi-mind trick for sure.

At 5 pm the day before, she stumbles upon a hotdog. She grabs it, accepting that her son will likely trick-or-treat with a black thermal on.

"Dublin likes hotdogs, but I don't think he'll tolerate this one."

She stuffs three costumes in his backpack the next day. Sister's backups.

Two hours later, she uploads a pic of her little hotdog sent by his teacher.

"He's not just tolerating it, he's swingin' in it!"
