Jack 'O Lantern

We had a wonderful experience tonight with our granddaughter. She came to our house to carve her first pumpkin. Grandma did the cutting, and baby did the digging out. The pumpkin soon swallowed her arm up to the shoulder. As she pulled out the strings and seeds she slung them into the pan. When she tired with her right arm she switched to her left. Grandpa was caught off-guard and barely put the pan to the left to catch the contents of the pumpkin. As soon as the face was carved and candle lit, her eyes were as bright as the glowing pumpkin. Grandpa captured the baby next to the glowing face and her favorite black kitty. She probably will not remember much of the happenings tonight. But her grandparents treasure them.
