A Day in Paradise

I made a bunkbed for Annie and Mia, but it’s not complete yet, and I don’t have a ladder for Annie to get up into her top bunk. Today, when I was playing with Mia, Annie came and asked me if I could put her up in her bed. I said “Why don’t you fly up, like Superman?” She said, “Annie, can’t fly like Superman, but…” and then climbed onto Mia’s bed and hung from the slats and said “… Annie can swing like a monkey, a Monkey Superman!”

We watched the tail end of one of the old Superman movies, and she really liked it, to the point where I was worried that she would try flying. Fortunately she has her feet on the ground and understands the difference between herself, monkeys and Superman.
