All moms have superpowers, different ones for different days. Sometimes at the end of a particularly superhero day, I'll reflect quietly on the different stunts and rescues I pulled off.
Occasionally, my superpower-driven son, who most days is a Jedi, others a magical pirate, still others a flying Superman, will notice and point out my superpowers.
In the car he dropped a toy that I had to stretch across the back seat over to the door to retrieve. He said, "Nice job, Alaska Girl! You're Alaska Girl, mama!" This was the second day in a row he called me "Alaska Girl". (Can't remember what enourmous feat I had accomplished the day before). I laughed and said, "You're welcome, Hawaii Boy!" And then I figured out he meant "Elasti-Girl" from The Incredibles. She's the mom of a superhero family and she can stretch and bend like nobody's business.
Aahhhh.....it's nice to be appreciated.
What superhero are you?

me? hmm not sure
That was cute! Alaska = Elastic :) I think that if I ask my dear boy which super hero I am, he'd just say, "I don't know." Guess I'm not exciting enough!
I think I'd like to be genie girl, and just blink everything done!

Too funny Alaska girl!!
I don't know that I am a superhero at all. Some days I really need to be!
Isn't great what kids can come up with? Recently, my daughter has taken up juggling. And lately I'm considered a not-so-superhero mom since I don't let her juggle anything else besides her toys.
Sweet post! I spent entire days playing "April O'Neil" (Ninja Turtles) when my son was 4-years old. Oh to be a child... I'd stop time in order to have more time to see friends, write, smell the roses.
