This week is Spirit Week at the kids school. Today was monumentous with Super Hero Dayyyyy! 
The kids were so excited to wear costumes to school. I loved that Kenny's hero is his dad so out came the Special Forces Hero costume. My daughter, on the other hand, is like me and always goes for drama! We got out the Little Red Riding Hood costume from Halloween and conformed it to be a makeshift Wonder Woman costume. The only thing missing? The amazing dixie cups wrapped in aluminum foil as bullet armor! Thanks for those great memories, mom.
Lily sewed a "W" on the top and skirt of the costume from recycled Christmas ribbon. (My family totally makes fun of us girls that collect it after every present is opened.) She sewed a wide running stitch through the ribbon to secure it, and can easily be removed after the day's festivities.
When I dropped the kids off at school, they both had that funny look on their faces. I remember that look. They said, "Mom, what if no one else dressed up today?" I giggled a little because I would be thinking the same thing but I assured them that no one could resist Super Hero Day at school. "Go learn and be super!"
