Kids make me laugh

I'm on the phone:

Me: yeah, I'm really excited. Just got a book on training for Ironman.

Nicholas looks up from doing homework, bright-eyed and excited: Mommy, you're going to train to be Ironman? Can I be Ironman, too?

Me: Hold on... No, Nicholas, not Tony Stark, a long long hard triathlon race called Ironman. (I show him the book).

Nicholas, grumbles and goes back to homework: Oh man! That would have been so cool.

we used to wear superhero capes when we cleaned house and picked up toys. (ok, they were bath towels with safety pins)
but we still wore them and acted like superheros lifting entire buildings!
