What would your superpower be?


The Kid loves fantasy stuff. He likes to imagine that he is some all powerful warrior with the ability to smite enemies with a single blow. At least once a week, we have a discussion about "what would your superpower be?" He changes his powers almost every week. Sometimes it's super-strength. Sometimes it's invisibility. Sometimes, after an especially long day when we are walking home, he wants rocket powered feet to power him up the hill by our house.

I always want the same things- the ability to speak every language and to shoot laser beams out of my left eye when my eyebrow is raised. The Kid thinks it's boring that I don't want to be able to fly around the world or stop time, but I think language and lasers are pretty cool.

So kids- what would your superpower be?
