It's not just a mail run, it's an EVENT!

My favorite daily routine is checking the mail, hands down.  We have a central mailbox in our neighborhood which is located in the neighbor's front yard, so it's not a far walk, but Sebastian and I go every day.  Normally we'll race and I'll jog around in weird patterns yelling "I'm gonna win!" or singing my "I'm the fastest Mom in the world, and I can walk faster than Sebaaaastian..."  (it's got a super catchy tune).

Today was unusual because A, Aaron picked the kids up from daycare early and B, I came home from work about 2 hours late.  I was a bit exhausted and barely remembered to invite Sebastian, but he screamed from the back of the house that he could join me once he picked up his Spiderman mask.

There he appeared, racing around the kitchen counter in his Spiderman light-up sneakers, Thomas the Tank Engine shirt, and Finding Nemo underwear, putting on his Spiderman mask as he ran through to the front door.  "I'm the faster!  I'm the faster!" he yelled.  Shrugging off my early morning airport drive and unexpected 10-hour workday, I let the door go and jogged on out.

I wonder what we're supposed to wear tomorrow?
