Raising a Superhero

Yesterday Danek told me that Dad was getting him a cape. Knowing that Halloween is still 3 months away I asked him, "When are you going to wear it"? He said he wants to wear it around the yard and do superhero stuff. I told him he could wear it for Halloween and we could get him a superhero costume. He disliked the idea and explained to me that he was going to be a REAL superhero, not a pretend one at Halloween. (How could you think of a thing like that mom?) He said he wants to help people and expects to do it when he grows up too. How could I have ever have guessed that we were raising a superhero?
