“I took my 5 year old daughter to pick pumpkins today with her little brother. After carving her pumpkin with her for 2 and a half hours we finally put it outside of our house with its strobe light that I picked up at the store today.
Within an hour I just had this need to check on her pumpkin. Of course, the worst feeling ever is seeing my daughter’s pumpkin gone that she busted her ass for. I live on Jouvette Street and this seriously saddens me.
How can you do something like that to a child? She is going to be so heartbroken tomorrow morning when I tell her the truth about these cruel people. Thank you to whoever stole my daughter’s pumpkin that she was so proud of completing. Please, if anyone saw who did it or saw some kids/people walking with a pumpkin like this please speak up.
I’m just really upset and it breaks me to know I have to tell her tomorrow. – Melissa.
What a HORRIBLE thing to do to ANYBODY nevermind a CHILD!!!!!! Kids these days and GROWN ppl have NO RESPECT or CONSIDERATION for anyone!!!! This upsets me so much. Since moving to NB, I’ve had 2 scooters stolen, & last Christmas, I left some bags up on my back deck so I could walk around the house & go get them. The bags were left alone for all of 30 SECONDS tops!!!!! And my bags were gone….. maybe u can tell your daughter that the pumpkin was so beautiful that ppl got jealous that they didn’t have one like it, so they stole it on her. Just a helpful suggestion. I am so VERY SORRY this happened to u and your family. My heart ? goes out to u. God DOESN’T SLEEP… EVER, let him handle this.
