For any comments on the story.
Author's Notes: One of my 2007 Halloween stories.
I think the genesis of this story was imagining the Daddy character teasing the little girl character that wearing a footed sleeper didn't count as a costume. But, once I started writing the story, I remebered that Daddy had mentioned before that he'd like to see me in a genie costume, and I thought that it would be cute to have one of those on over a Jasmine-themed Pull-Up.
So, to figure out how to work both of those ideas into one story, I decided to bring back the sister character. I didn't want her to dominate the story, though, especially since I had a bit of a Thanksgiving story that I was hoping to get done that next month (it didn't happen) that she was also in, so I decided to relegate her to flashbacks. I think it worked better that way, so that was one of those lucky accidents.
Don't know where the little girl "rival" came from, but I'm glad it happened, because that's probably my favorite part of this story, if only because it gave me to show the main character as a bit more of a brat than usual.
