Oh and by the way . . . It's done!

Before the Easter parade started, I, of course, had to finish the Superman cape. It isn’t perfect. The flaws can be seen with the naked eye, but it is done.

However, I must let you know, my gentle readers, my climactic last snip of the scissors was not met with the accolades, and best-mom-in the-world status as I had hoped.

As soon as I pulled its majestic, velvety, super heroedness from beneath the presser foot, I rushed upstairs to show off my finished product. The intended of the “handmade with love” garment ran to the other end of the room and yelled, “NO!”.

“No? What do you mean no?”

“It will make me look funny, like a duck.”

“Like a duck? What are you talking about?”

“Daddy said it would make me look like a duck.”

“Oh, Daddy? What is this about a duck in a cape?, “ I call with all the patience I can muster.

According to Daddy, he told Thee that the Superman Cape mommy was making was just like the one Duck Dodgers was wearing. He went on to say that when Thee wore his he would look just like Duck Dodgers.

Thee is smart enough to know that Duck Dodgers is not the hero of that cartoon, but rather the buffoon.

After promising an ice cream cone and a viewing of the Star Trek movie, Thee put the cape on long enough for me to take a picture of it.

Oh...that man of mine, I love him so.....
