Yesterday Henry was one of the Superbees at school. Superbee is a program where kids who have all the traits that they learn about get celebrated on Friday, and eat lunch with the principal. They also get a slap bracelet that says they are a superbee, and a special shirt with cape to wear all day.

Eleanor was Superbee already, and she and Henry were asking me on the drive home if their dad was a superbee when he was a kid. I said no, because the program didn’t exist. Eleanor then said that when Bob was little they also didn’t have color (all the world was black and white), and anyway in 1974 they didn’t even have kindergarten. Bob is not that old. And of course we had color. Anyway, we are super proud of both our sweet Superbees!
