There are days in your life that you need your own type of hero. Recently, I have found my own masked "super" to save my day. The is the story of how I was rescued:
On Sunday, I was given a cute RS reminder for a Tuesday activity. It was an announcement taped on a red backing with double-sided sticky tape. Faith seperated the two without difficulty. Later that day, as I was feeling grumpy, I picked up the red peice of paper and stuck it to my forhead. Faith thought it rather normal and kindly asked for the paper to be stuck on her head. Proportionally, the paper covers quite a bit more surface area on Faith's face. With peals of laughter, she set off at lightening short-legged speed with her new red mask. We were impressed with her x-ray vision which penetrated the red paper while navigating around the apartment without running into anything (except a closed door to the bedroom that normally would not have been there SPLAT!). The best part...Faith's super-hero counter part has a sense for grumpiness. When she knows mommy or daddy is grumpy, she quickly finds her mask and asks for it to be put on her forhead again, and AWAY! she giggles away the grumps! What adult doesn't find a reason to smile at a toddler, blinfolded, bumping around the bedroom?
Sorry the pictures are a bit blurry, it is hard to catch a superhero at their full velocity.
