“The Worst Witch” Not everyone has a picture perfect childhood, but I am blessed to have a wonderful family who have given me a great childhood. We make memories that will last a lifetime and our tradition on Halloween will be carried on for future generations to come. The tradition of watching ‘The Worst Witch’ has brought my family closer and it makes us realize how lucky we are to have the life we live.

This tradition of watching ‘The Worst Witch’ and carving pumpkins every year brings my family closer together and we realize how lucky we really are. Knowing that my dad did not have a memorable childhood really makes me feel blessed that my parents would do anything for me. With school starting in the fall and the sports beginning my family gets really busy and it always seems as if we are on an opposite schedule. Coming together and spending a full day and night with my family, we reflect on how lucky we are to have each
