Here's when being a mom of boys is not fun:
When you're sitting on the couch, and your little Batman and Buzz Lightyear come out of their room. Batman tells you in a serious voice, "Mom, we have something to show you."
And you hold out your unsuspecting hand, Batman puts something in it, you look ...
and it is a cockroach.
A smushed, dead cockroach.
And you let out a scream (because you are startled, of course; NOT what you were expecting), drop it on the end table, then pick it up with a Kleenex, throw it away, and sanitize everyone's hands.
But then Batman says to you, "Mom, you are Wonder Woman. You're brave of cockroaches."
OK, so maybe it's fun after all. A little bit. Once the sanitizing has been done and the trash can lid is closed.
Hey, at least it was dead, right?
