Lily really wants to be a superhero.
Lily: I'm not afraid of anything!
Mom: You're afraid of swimming.
Lily: Oh yeah.
Me: And you're afraid of bugs.
Lily: Yes.

Lily: But you know what I'm not afraid of? Fighting monsters!
I have three children: Ryan (12), Ethan (9) and Lily (6). One is autistic, one gifted and one adopted. This is a record of some of the amazing things they say and do. I try to stop and look around at least once a day.
