As a child, I was never interested in superheros. That could be because there were no brothers to expose me to them. I knew about Wonder Woman, and I’m pretty sure that I had a pair of her Underoos, but that is about it.
When I think about superheros, I don’t know which superpower goes with each superhero. Or whether or not Kryptonite is good or bad. I just know that having a superpower is cool.
I believe that I am a superhero – all moms are – and we all have a variety of superpowers. A few of my superpowers are:
The ability to go several days with little sleep.
I can multi-task. How many times have you been talking on the phone, replying to email, and coloring with your kiddos?
Pairing socks. I seem to have mastered the ability to pair socks.
I also had the ability to make milk. That one was my favorite.
So, moms, what’s your superpower?

I am not quite sure what my super power is yet. I’m still thinking about it. I know Sarcasm is one maybe?
I had those exact same underoos! Loved them!!
Those Underoos were so popular! I remember that my best friend got a pair first, I was devastated. Like it was the end of the world. Oh to be young again when only Underoos matter!
I don’t have children, So I don’t get to use that as a super power. I am torn between super intelligent and being a true shape changer.
Being super intelligent might be lonely – dealing with the rest of us! I think being a true shape changer would be fun, and would give you a new perspective on things.
The ability to go several days with very little sleep is one of my superpowers as well.
I never thought I would be able to survive on so little sleep. Do you remember the days when you could sleep until 10? I’m starting to wonder if those days really existed!
Ahhhh, those were the days…..
I so had those Wonder Woman underroos and I LOVED that show!
Oh, and Kryptonite is BAD!!

YAY! I was hoping that someone would remember the Underoos! And, thanks so much for letting me know about Kryptonite. I thought about googling it, but it slipped my mind!
love your answers!
