    I picked my almost 5-year-old up from nursery and met with a bit of a grump when I told him that we had to go straight home because I had a load of groceries. But then he and my 2-year-old daughter decided to help me unpack the groceries. They both got really excited when they saw all the different foods, but especially all the lovely fruits and vegetables. My boy said, "yay! vegetables! They'll help me be fast and strong." I'm still smiling an hour later. :happy:

    What an absolute sweetie! Is he a fan of Sportacus too? :smile:

    Oddly enough he's never really taken to Lazy Town, but he loves the notion of superheroes in general. In fact, that brings back another of today's smiles. He wants to be a superhero when he grows up, but says he won't be a superhero until he flies. Today, we were discussing gravity (as you do), and once he got the basic idea, he said, "oh, so that's why I can't fly."

    Aaahh but.....and this is something Kevin and I were discussing the other day......when you are running, there are times when both feet are off the ground, so if you add all those brief seconds up, then technically it could be said that you flew for X number of minutes during a (long) run! I think that's pretty superhero-ish, don't you?! :laugh:

    BTW, I wanted to be Thor when I was a child! I had a tablecloth cloak, a mallet for Mjollnir, and I took the ears out of my brother's Mickey Mouse hat and replaced them with cardboard wings I'd made! Rawr! :bigsmile:
