Greetings citizens of the world. This is my first blog entry - ever. It took a 90+ degree night in my overly sweaty office to finally make the plunge. Perhaps my mind was altered by the 100% humidity and sweltering inferno that was my house. Or the relentless nagging by the 4.5 year old who lives with me : "MOM!!! I'M SO HOT!!!! I WANT ANOTHER ICE CREAM!!!" (Does it make me a bad mom to reply: "NO! You've already had five! Go lie on the cold tile with the dog - you'll feel better in no time!")
But I digress... So who am I exactly? Just an every day, average mom with a boy, a dog, and a love of all things superhero, mutant, and otherwise. Whether or not you know the slightest thing about Diana Prince, Bruce Wayne, Peter Parker, or Charles Xavier, if you're a mom, you wear a cape. Simple as that. It's about time we embrace our superhero side, share our battles with the evil Play-Doh monster, our struggles with the infamous laundry crayon, and our triumphs over sugar-induced insanity. There needs to be a place on the internet where we can reveal our weaknesses - ie., hoarding the best sugar cereal for ourselves, the occasional 2pm glass of "mommy juice", and pretending that Caillou is no longer available on TV, DVD, or streaming Netflix.
I will attempt to update this blog as regularly as I can escape reality - in other words, between my shifts at work, removing action figures from the sink drain, and singing along to Raffi. You catch my drift.
In the meantime, Godspeed Moms with Capes. We have a world to save.
