Super Mommy!
This morning, Clara was sweet enough to let me wear her “super-cape” (piece of gauzy cloth tied in a knot at one end). It’s purple and serves many purposes, ranging from a blanket for her shark, to transforming her into a mermaid, to being her superhero cape. This girl has imagination, that’s for sure…
As I was stumbling around the kitchen this morning- because I’m off the coffee, right? - Clara bounces in and gives me her cape… Instantly, I was transformed!
Faster with a cup of coffee!
More exhausted than a hibernating bear!
There’s snot!
And wipes!
Don’t forget band-aids….
It’s SUPER MOMMY!!!!!!!!
The riotous giggles that ensued were *almost* as invigorating as my beloved and much missed coffee…

You just needed the right outfit obviously! Who needs a cute black bag when you have a purple super cape?

I wonder how my energy would change if I wore a super cape? Might be a good thing.
