A Mommy Story

On Saturday we spent the day at the Columbus Zoo for the Family Days at the Zoo event. Despite the rain, we toured all of the booths, played games, and met lots of costumed characters.

Clifford was there, and while she thought he was shorter than in the books, she didn’t doubt it was him.

This guy? Cordy totally thought he was the best pizza slice she’s ever seen.

And the princesses? Cordy was thrilled to meet them and knew them all by name. She loved getting her photo taken with Snow White. (And Spiderman also.)

But then she tugged on Spiderman’s arm, and he crouched down beside her for one more photo. And as soon as Aaron took the photo, she leaned over and said to Spiderman:

“You’re not really Spiderman, you’re just a boy in a costume.”

Busted, Spidey. Better not let Buzz Lightyear find out you’re an impostor or he might just try to blast you with his laser.

PS – I later confirmed with her that Santa Claus? Still real. Whew.
