Law and Order

Yesterday, Jack had a playdate with Riley, one of his best buds from school. He came home with more than good memories -- two whole sheets of Spiderman stickers!

So we ran around the house pretending to shoot webs from our wrists and swing from building to building. After a while, I pretended to accost a bad guy. "I'm going to catch him, Jack!"

"WAIT!," Jack shouted. "I can throw a brick at his face!!"

I said that I was thinking that we could capture the bad guy, turn him over to the appropriate authorities, ensure that his Miranda rights were read and that he had a fair trial with access to competent legal representation. But maybe the brick would work, too.
