Cambry declared Monday to be "Pajama Superhero Day!" What did this mean exactly? I'm not quite sure, other than it meant she put on her pajamas and attached a blanket "cape" around her neck. She bounded into the kitchen and announced herself as "Superhero Cambry!" She was really quite helpful all day and even showed me how she could "fly" (imagine her lying on her tummy in front of her fan with arms outstretched and hair blowing).
I wish I could say that I jumped right in and played along, but I have discovered that I'm really not that kind of mom. It's hard for me to "play." I did, however, use her "super powers" to help with little things throughout the day - picking up things, helping in the kitchen, that sort of thing. Delaney knocked over a lamp at one point, and I actually heard Cambry say, "Superhero Cambry is on her way!"
This is her kind of play. She doesn't play with dolls, play kitchens, Legos, and stuffed animals. Her style of play is imagining and creating. Even though it is hard for me to do those things, I realize that God has given her this gift of imagination. My prayer is that Chelan and I can embrace this and encourage her along the way!

| One of the project this superhero helped out with - she decided adding the green beans one at a time through the small funnel was a good idea. And Delaney may have gotten her jar a little full! |

| All she's missing is a big C on her shirt! |
 |
| She was especially excited about a 4-wheeler ride because it would make her cape "fly" |
Hurray for super hero Cambry!! And I LOVE the green bean technique!! Love you, Super Hero!!
