Alistair dropped Eloise off at the kindergarten entrance. Instead of waving goodbye as usual, she tilted her little face up and stared at

Eloise responded with complete seriousness, "Can Superman make delicious creamy garlic shrimp pasta? Can Superman braid my hair? In my eyes, Daddy, you're a hundred times better than Superman!"

Her sweet words, flowing like honey, made Alistair's heart bloom with joy.
