Thanks all for the kind responses and great ideas. His birthday is actually the day before Halloween, so it's a very exciting time for him anyway. And he's not that sad about trick-or-treating. He just says "no" and hands out candy while snitching a few pieces for himself. And lord knows he loves the decorating!!

It was more just me being wistful around just one more way he is just so different from his age peers. And missing one more of those things I imagined doing with my child. Of course I get to do all sorts of things with him that I NEVER imagined wink Thanks for re-focusing me on that.
