"Mom? Are you ... Wonder Mom?"

The other day, Ben appeared in the kitchen, his eyes wide.

"Mom? Are you ... Wonder Mom?"

I'd left the computer on with my Web site up. He was trying to get to Lego.com. My cover was blown.

"Yes, son, it's true. I'm Wonder Mom, and I've got some super powers that you haven't learned about yet."

I don't know if it's a testament to my prowess as a mom or the limitless imagination of a 7-year-old boy, but he didn't question me furthur. He just nodded silently and ran off to play.

I've got a new review up here on a video game that will help convince my boys I'm a superhero by sending me secret emails about their progress. The game is JumpStart World First Grade, and it's unique enough to make it worth a look.

You should be relieved that you don't have to change clothes in a phone booth anymore now that your secret identity has been revealed!

I can't wait to hear how you use this to your advantage. You're very creative, so this could be entertaining...

It would have been worrysome only if he came across your blog by accident while surfing the 'net. Right? I mean - what should he be doing reading mommy blogs in his spare time? :) Cute story... I like the comment about changing in the phone booth, LOL. Just thought I'd delurk and say hello!
