Growing Up Too Fast

Today was Super Hero Day at school.  My kids spent the morning deciding what they were going to dress up as.  Angel decided to be Hawkgirl, Picasso decided to be Batman, and Princess decided to be Supergirl.  Costumes were put together and wings were made before they went to school.  Archer did not dress up as his school was not participating in this spirit week.  Turns out really nobody knew about Super Hero Day as my kids were some of the only people who dressed up.  They did not care, they had a great time!

Angel came home and I asked her if anyone knew who she was dressed up as.  She said one boy did, but that was it.  That is about what we expected as Hawkgirl is not a really well known character.  In a very exasperated tone she told me that all the boys were calling her "Hot Girl" all day instead of Hawkgirl.  She is a very pretty girl, but really Hot Girl???  When did 4th and 5th grade boys start calling girls "Hot"?  Kids are growing up much to fast.  When I was in 4th and 5th grade the boys and girls worried more about whose team you were going to be on for kickball, not who was hot.  All I can say is we are in for a lot of fun as the girls get older.  Yikes!
