After we arrived home from seeing 'Chicken Little' the other night, I was checking our email while Michael & Alex were preparing for bed. Apparently they were talking about the qualities that defined a super hero, because I overheard Alex forcefully proclaiming, "every super-hero must be smart." He went on to explain, with extreme conviction, that it was not strength, speed or colorful tights that allowed them thwart evil; it was their intelligence.
I had a broad smile as I eavesdropped, knowing that my sons were admiring the right kind of heroes (the smart ones) and they right kind of qualities. This insight of Alex's was quite clever, clever enough that perhaps Alex will be saving the world one day.
