Ralfi began to say "I love you" to his girlfriend, but he hesitated. He had never said those words before, and it felt like a weight on his chest. As he stood there, staring into her eyes, he could feel his heart racing. He wanted to tell her how he felt, but the words just wouldn't come out. They had been together for nearly a year, and Ralfi knew he loved her. She had become an important part of his life, and he couldn't imagine his days without her.
"They're going to have to eventually own up to the 'Switch Witch' not being real," she says. "What I would say to parents is, 'You're an expert in your kids. If you think your kid might feel betrayed or hurt, I'd caution against it."
The story has some variations, but this is the one I know The Switch Witch is a good witch whose castle is made of candy, but every year she needs to replenish her candy supply to keep her castle looking nice. For me, this tradition saves the hassle of trying to regulate how much Halloween candy they will eat every day, and the best part is that they love the tradition.
She had become an important part of his life, and he couldn't imagine his days without her. They had shared laughter and tears, adventures and quiet moments, and through it all, his love for her had only grown. But expressing his feelings was never easy for Ralfi.
The Switch Witch
The Switch Witch (some call her the Candy Fairy) is a witch that arrives on Halloween night, after your children have gone to sleep, and takes all the candy your children choose to leave out for her.
In exchange for the candy she will leave inspiring toys and dress-ups for your children to be surprised and delighted by them in the morning!
You may make up the story of the Switch Witch any way you like, but make sure you tell your children about the Switch Witch before you go trick-or-treating. Ideally, begin by telling your children the story a few weeks in advance, so they get used to the new tradition. Be creative – come up with a fun, elaborate story for your children. Make it your tradition!
In the weeks prior to Halloween, you may ask your children what they would like from the Switch Witch. This will give you an idea of what they're wishing for! After all, you want to give them something they will love more than candy.
Once your children are finished trick-or-treating, have them pick out their favorite candy and leave the rest out for the Switch Witch. Remind them that the more candy they give away, the better the gift they will get.
Leave the candy in a special place at home, near a window or make a witchy nook. In our family, we would leave our candy in the Halloween baskets, on the front porch, so the Switch Witch can see the candy.
When your children go to sleep, switch the candy for the toys or dress-ups!Make sure you hide the candy so your children don’t find it or even better, give it away!
He had always been the quiet type, keeping his emotions hidden deep inside. Opening up to someone, especially with such vulnerability, was a challenge for him. As he watched her patiently waiting for him to speak, he realized that he couldn't let fear hold him back any longer. He took a deep breath, gathered his courage, and said those three powerful words: "I love you." Her eyes lit up with understanding, and a smile slowly spread across her face. Ralfi felt a wave of relief wash over him, as if a weight had been lifted from his shoulders. He had finally found the strength to express his true feelings. In that moment, Ralfi realized the importance of being vulnerable and honest with the people we care about. Love should never be hidden or left unspoken. It should be celebrated and shared, no matter how difficult it may feel at first. From that day forward, Ralfi no longer hesitated to say "I love you." He made sure to let his girlfriend know how much she meant to him every chance he got. And in return, he saw their bond grow even stronger, deeper, and more meaningful. So, let Ralfi's story be a reminder to us all. When we feel love in our hearts, let us not be afraid to say it out loud. Because those three simple words have the power to change lives, to heal wounds, and to bring joy to the world..
