The saga of Batman

Bubbie thinks he's Batman, though he hadn't seen anything but a birthday card and a t shirt with Batman before yesterday afternoon. He leaves the house with a jacket hood over his head (cape) and a pair of purple toddler sunglasses (mask) on everyday for the past two days. This morning on the way to school he told me about two mean girls at school (the 3, 4 and 5 year olds are mixed on the playground). When I asked him why they were mean, he told me they didn't believe him when he told them his name. Of course I asked, "what did you tell them your name is? " "Batman". Hmmmmm.......We then discussed what to do the next time he saw the girls. When we got to school Ms. Ana said "Hi Batman". Hmmmm......I am beginning to see the problem. He wore the jacket and glasses all day and all night, and has them stored next to his bed in case he needs to help someone in the middle of the night. So tonight when Carmen and I were giving the kids dinner, and Bubbie didn't want to eat his vegetables, I told him Batman could fly only when he ate his vegetables.....to this Bubbie replied "Mommy, I am a pretend Batman, and I can't fly, so I'm not going to eat my vegetables".
