supermom.

Our plan for this evening was to head to Wichita and go to a 7:00 Wrangler game and watch the fireworks afterward. We decided against it when we saw Wichita was in a severe thunderstorm warning. Sophie was very disappointed that we weren't going and was whining around...

Sophie: Please can't we go? I promise we won't get wet. Please?

Me: (without a hint of exasperation in my voice...) What do you want me to do? I can't make it stop raining.

Sophie: Just go up and squish all the water out of the clouds.

Me: (with a smile now) But I can't reach the clouds.

Sophie: Well, put a super cape on.


I do have a Superwoman shirt. Unfortunately, no super powers came with it. It would be nice, though...
