The Flying Nun, a character played by Sally Field in 1965, was my most memorable Halloween costume for two reasons: I idolized Sally Field and watched The Flying Nun, episode after episode, then rerun after rerun. And I remember my mother fussing, making my costume from a sheet and an album cover. I felt special and loved. Lord only knows where she scrounged up a crucifix, since we weren't church goers!
In turn, I wanted Halloween to be special for my daughter and made her first costumes. I modified a Cabbage Patch bunny costume when she was a babe in arms. Next was a silky satin clown outfit that I fussed over. That one was a big deal, a financial splurge, and so unbelievably high on the cute scale!
I think my efforts had an impact, Halloween is a big deal in her life. Or, so my ego hopes. Her costumes really amaze me, she plans months in advance.
