I Want to be Elastigirl

Today I ran errands with only Sophia and David.  It was fun to have all that time in the car and in the stores to just enjoy Sophia's 3 year old chatter.  Today I found out that Sophia thinks I am a superhero…somewhere in the same vein as Elastigirl!!  I knew that it was snacktime so I bought some bananas at our first stop and offered her a banana to eat in the car while we drove to our next destination.  She declined saying, "I will just wait and eat the samples at Costco."  I had to smile at that one.  We got in our belts and headed off.  After several minutes of driving the inevitable cries of "I'm hungry," started.  Sophia said, "I'm ready for my banana now.  Can you give it to me."  When I tried to explain that I couldn't as I was driving, she had a very simple answer.  "Just climb back here and give it to me while you keep on driving." I drive a great big passenger van with three benches behind the front seats.  She was in the second bench back.   I answered, "I don't think I can do that."  She simply stated, "Yes you can!"  Oh, if I only had the stretchable arms of Helen Parr, aka Elastigirl, aka Mrs. Incredible.  Sophia did survive the drive however, and never did need her banana.  She got her fill at the sample tables at Costco!
