Paper pumpkins-A woman of few words

Had a small "party" with my kids.
We worked on our art projects and watched
some cartoons as a treat.

I wore half of my costume to school and the kids
thought I was the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland...

But I was a mime and it was super fun.
At our adult team party, I stayed in character the
whole night, even through attempts of many sorts to break me.
I spoke not once but communicated my heart out.

Back home.
A little smeared.
A little tired.
A lot thankful
for my voice
and my team here.
