The Justice League

Okay, the boys have an obsession with the Justice League. I'm starting to think that this concept of super hero's and taking on their personas is something that is part of the genetic make up of boys!

Last night after a little tennis practice, we went over to the playground to burn off the remainder of their energy stores! While they were running around we couldn't help but laugh because they actually refer to one another as their Justice League persona. So you would hear Bobcat call to Bubba by saying something like "hey Batman come over here, Green Lantern is about to come by".

Here are the boys and their characters:

• Bobcat: Superman (sometimes Spiderman)


• Bubba: Batman (ALWAYS)


• Snookie: Flash or Green Lantern

Some kids play with the imaginary characters, my boys actually become them. But it gets better. The other day we had the fort set up (blankets hung from the top bunk covering the bottom bunk), and Bobcat came out to tell DH something.

"Daddy, Jesus is in the fort playing with us."

"Well, of course Bobcat, Jesus is everywhere."

"No Daddy, HE is in the fort with us for FAKE." Then out comes Bubba.

"And Daddy, St. Michael is in here too."

I guess I don't have to worry about them having a personal and close relationship with Jesus and the Saints... they happen to be my boys playmates! You just have to love boys!
