Motherhood = Superhero School

Has anyone else noticed that Moms are a little bit like superheroes?

1. Snot, pee, poop and vomit don't scare me  (Fear of nothing)
2. Bring on the pain. I've already endured the worst.  (Inhuman ability to endure pain)
3. Sleep?  What's sleep?   (Not subject to human physical needs)
4. Battle of the wills:  I will win.  (The Power of determination - ok, I made that superpower up)
5. I see through lies.   (X-ray Vision)
6. I fly to the rescue   (Flying)
7. Healing abilities?  Check.   (Healing powers)
8. You probably think there's more than one of me too.  (Power of duplication or speedster abilities)
9. I might have been in the other room, but oh yes, I did hear that.  (Super hearing)
10. And we all know the rumor about the extra set of eyes....   (Omnipresence, or #9 and #10 could just be super scenses)

So, let's break these down:

1. Fear of nothing
2. Inhuman ability to endure pain
3. Not subject to human physical needs
4. The Power of Determination
5. X-ray vision
6. Flying
7. Healing
8. Speedster or power of duplication
9. Superhearing
10. omnipresence (or 9 and 10 can be super senses)

I think I have earned the right to wake up in the morning and say, "I Am Mommy, Hear Me Roar."
