Spiderman meets Superman


So yesterday, I was grocery shopping with Parker who insisted on wearing his outrageous spider man slippers out that day. Because we are starting the terrible two stage, I decided to let this go and choose my battles. (Just for a mental pic... they are those huge fluffy type slippers with humongous spider man heads on the front.)

Anyhow, while we were in the pasta section, I hear the voice of the guy next to me say...."hey little guy....cool shoes"...obviously directed at Parker. I turned, told Parker to say thank you, and then looked up to greet the man. Immediately I was taken back as I realized who the spider man fan was. No he wasn't a bird, nor a plane....he was superman. (Also, known to some as Dean Cain.)

I politely smiled. He said, "cute kid", and politely smiled back. And with that we parted ways--me to to the sauces, him to the noodle area.

I cant wait until Parker is old enough to understand how cool it was that Superman himself was talking to him. Hopefully this post will remind me to tell him sometime. Meanwhile, maybe we need to invest in some Superman slippers as well.

When I was little and would play house, Dean Cain was always my husband. And we all know that Parker is named after Spidey... *B
