Just like all superheros, Logan was able to prove he has superpowers last night when his mother made a very stupid mistake. That mistake was thinking that Caden would stay in his car seat without being buckled in. We were leaving the library at around 7:30 pm when I noticed a man and a women (with 2 little kids in their car) standing next to their open hood holding one end of jumper cables. It was obvious to me that they needed someone to jump start their car, so I told them I would move my truck closer to theirs. I put Caden and Logan in the backseat and moved 2 parking spaces over. I got out to open the hood and noticed that someone (guess who) was flashing the headlights at me. I ran to the car door, but I was a moment too late. He locked it. Logan (the good son) had already hooked himself into his 5 point harness. Logan has never had good hand strength, so I always have to unbuckle him. Yes, most of the time I like it that way. I tried to get Logan to unroll his window, but I guess I had the windows locked (because Caden had unrolled his and threw a toy out his window last week.) Plan B, get Caden to try to push the button to unlock the door or unroll any of the windows. I was laughing the whole time this was going on, somewhat because I didn't want the kids to be scared and also because this was so stupid. While I was trying to convince Caden that now was a good time to play with the buttons, Logan was carefully trying to maneuver himself out of his car seat. He managed to open the chest lock. It took him a while and he had to take off his shoes and his pants were pulled down to his knees, but he was able to get out of his seat and save me from having to have the police unlock my car. Logan was so proud to have saved the day. Some of you may ask why I didn't call Ryan. He was not in the state. If I had called him, he would have just laughed at me. The poor people whose car battery was broken felt so bad. More proof to the old adage, No Good Deed Goes Unpunished!

Nothing more heroic than a power ranger with a light saber. Logan rocks.
