New York was alive with trick-or-treaters, especially within the van Loon’s neighbourhood. There were kids everywhere, from the scariest of costumes to the most adorable. Amongst the van Loons, there was a Little Red Riding Hood, a Kylo Ren, and a mini Amanda disguised as a fairy. The smile returned to Amanda’s face every time she remembered how her younger daughter had insisted on being Amanda for Halloween his year. At home, she wore a dress and was walking around in heels, but Amanda and Niels had persuaded her to wear an actual costume for trick-or-treating. This year, Nicco was actually able to enjoy the trick-or-treating. Most of the trip, he was delighted with going from house to house, enjoying his first lollipops. It was so enjoyable just watching him have such a blast. Even Emi, Angelo and Elia were entertained by the youngest van Loon’s pure joy over this first real experience. On the way back home, Elia kept shouting to everyone, “Happy Halloween!” And indeed, it was a great night.
