It's A Bird, It's A Plane.....


No, it's just William. As Superman. His favorite thing to do these days is dress up and act out. He is SO dramatic too. I have no idea where he gets that from. Must be Andy's side of the family.

Superman, Spiderman, or even a fairy Princess (much to Andy's dismay). The boy loves to dress up. And he doesn't discriminate. Catherine got a trunk full of dress of clothes for her birthday (tutu, fairy wings, crown, gloves, pearls, even high heels...the works) and I think William has worn everything more than she has. When I addressed him as Princess William, he corrected me. "No, Mama. I'm PRINCE William." Uh huh. Riiiiiiight.

When he's acting out Superman, he enlists Catherine as Supergirl, his sidekick. She has no idea what she's doing, but she plays along and does whatever she's told. One night, William decided that Daddy should be Superstar. I cracked up when I heard Catherine walking through the house, looking for her Daddy and, in that little sing-songy voice, calling out " ... AHHHH (are) you, Supah-stah???"

These are things I hope I always remember but know I probably won't. These are also the moments that never fail to make me laugh, no matter what kind of day I've had.

It's a pretty fair exchange.

Your kids are going to LOVE you one day for taking such good notes of their childhood!

Especially, when Catherine tells Williams date that he used to dress up as a "prince" in pearls, tutu and high heels...
