Can I make it mine too?

Here is a wee taste of an American holiday.  We didn't dress BabyBird up this year, and I have not been much of a team player in the past - although I've carved a few pumpkins - but the decision I made this year is we will make it a family holiday soon.  As soon as BabyBird can Trick or Treat and know what's going on.  While it's not a holiday at home, I like the community feeling Americans create through this holiday, walking around their neighbourhoods and visiting their neighbours.  And though I have always rejected Halloween before, it makes more sense to me now.  Like how Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy were part of my childhood.  I guess these are things a new mama questions all the time.
