Notes from a Middle-Aged Dad #20: Super Heroes

Written by Alex on April 27, 2016 - 0 Comments

Dear Ivan:

I notice that you enjoy Super Heroes.  I don’t blame you.  Super Heroes are awesome!

By the way, little known fact — Super Heroes go to bed early.  Also, they eat vegetables.  And, although it’s a little known fact, they always listen to their mommies and daddies.

Do they play with toys?  Yes.  But, they don’t get new ones all the time.  And, although it’s surprising, they’ve definitely cut down on nose-picking, though they do think that farting is hilarious.

So, yes, Super Heroes are to be much admired and emulated, particularly the one with the red cape and the “S” on his chest.  You know, the one who always puts his things away, doesn’t watch too much tv, and likes to work quietly in his Fortress of Solitude.

Meantime, just know that in my eyes, you’re already a Super Hero . . . of boogers (hee-hee-hee)!

Love,

Daddy
