Look, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's....

My son called me to his room this afternoon with an urgent appeal to see that the light had burned-0ut. Granted it is a fan light, and I did have to use a step ladder to remove the light cover and replace two light bulbs, but come on, it's no big deal, right? Not to my 3 1/2 year old who upon completing the job proudly told me "you're a GREAT fixer Mom!" as though I'd performed some Apollo 13-type rocket science.

Maybe I need to start thinking of a superhero name. How about...Mommerwomaaan (to the tune of the Wonder Woman theme song), or SuperMom...able to change lightbulbs in a single bound...

Then again, maybe I'll just enjoy the fun of seeing myself through the eyes of a three year old.

Speaking of which, oh GREAT fixer, the main light in the guest bathroom is out.

I thought we didn't HAVE a guest bathroom.

Mommerwoman to the rescue...got my ladder, screw driver, light bulb, now if I could just figure out what my superpower is.....
