Saturday Centus 24 .................. Edenhouse

This is a themed writing meme and a different challenge this week.
You can use UP to 100 words to tell your story. The prompt does not count for your 100 words AND it must be left intact in the body of your story. No illustrations are permitted. Your story can be fact or fiction, just keep it PG, please! I have to look at my Grandchildren with these eyes.

"Trick or treat!" they shouted as the door opened..." this is this weeks  starter
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Where has the time gone I thought as I sat waiting for the first knock on the door. Last year I had made individual packages for the trick or treaters , this year I decided that I would go back to the basket of goodies that way the children could just pick what they liked.

I could hear the children , I was so excited , this really was a fun night in the year .

I do struggle tho with my Christian faith that says it's not right but what harm can it do? I give a tract to them

"Trick or treat!" they shouted as the door opened..."

Great job on this. More and more people aren't giving out stuff.

I love the idea of you passing out tracts! Brilliant! I could feel your reticence about participating in a tradition that goes against your faith. I just plane don't like Halloween.

Thanks..........cj

I like how you created balance for your character here Tracy.

I really liked this prompt for that exact controversial reason.

It was interesting to read your take on it!

Thanks for linking.

I enjoyed your little story.
