The costume ball at the library was bittersweet. By this time Zane had switched back to wanting to be a Power Ranger. He played all the games and made all the crafts. His only disappointment was that they didn't hand out more candy. As we were leaving he complained about it a tad. I changed the topic to how it was his last costume ball there. In a sad tone he was like "Really? That was my last one at the library?"
To balance Vanessa's fun Halloween activities at school, I promised Zane a trip to the zoo. We went on a day it was basically empty. It was very enjoyable to move at our pace and to hear him explore and question so many things.
The apes were intrigued by Zane. I think his sitting quietly on the ledge in his black hoodie made them feel very comfortable, so they kept coming up to him.
