Batman

So this weekend while we were visiting the Sarman's we learned that Thomas likes Superman, and pretends to be him. He was even wearing his Superman pj's with a cape. Apparently Sammy has a favorite superhero, and we just didn't know. I guess he was not going to let Thomas have one up on him. He kept telling Thomas he was Batman. At one point I even overheard them arguing with each other about who was better. This argument was a traditional kid argument complete with the loud voices and the "my dad says" lines. This continued all weekend, even when they were happily swinging next to each other. It was really quite cute.
This evening I told Sammy I had a surprise for him. I took him upstairs and gave him a Batman costume that used to be John David's. My mom gave them each a Batman costume many years ago, but even my little Sammy can't fit into a size 1-2, so he had to wear his brother's size 2-4. He was sooo excited, and put it on right away. He kept running around the kitchen and living room. JP even sang the Batman tune for him and whenever he stopped, Sammy would ask for him to sing it again. He said that the cape helped him fly and even wanted to sleep with it, but since it is a costume he had to take it off. I am sure that we will see Batman again tomorrow and the next day after that and the next day and many more next days...know what I mean.
