We've gone back to reading the "Attack on Titan" series again. A couple of months ago, we had read all 13 books in the series, except Book 12 which was mysteriously missing.
Ansel and Archer had been waging a campaign for me to buy another copy of 12, because how could we go on without it? I resisted, however, fairly certain that it was merely obscured by a pile of toys in their room and annoyed that they weren't actually making any attempt to look for it.
Perhaps you remember thinking that your mother always knew where to find missing objects during your childhood? I am pretty lousy at keeping track of my own stuff. If my phone didn't ring, I would have had to give up long ago on having one at all. However, the kids' missing things are usually easy to locate because not even the most minimal effort has been made to find them.
At any rate, Book 12 turned up pretty much where I thought it was, and now we are back to reading about teen drama and monstrous cannibalism by huge naked zombie like people.
I thought about drawing the kids in their Halloween costumes for today's napkin, but was overwhelmed by the task of reading Ansel's mind and portraying him in a way that would not mortify him.
So, giant pumpkin titan it is.
The kids' costumes are pictured below from a test drive last week. Ansel is wearing a costume of his own design: an amalgam of Ezra Bridger from "Star Wars Rebels" (the helmet) and Star Lord from "Guardians of the Galaxy" (the coat) and an unnamed cool guy who would wear a Minecraft t-shirt and fingerless gloves. Archer is Eren from "Attack on Titan" in his non titan, non pumpkin, form
