Luke intentionally dumped a bottle of “fairy dust” sparkle makeup on his own head and then danced around the room maniacally. This photo does not convey the true amount of glitter that was in his hair — not to mention his neck, shoulders, and torso.  It looked like somebody hit him with a magic wand. And he left a trail of glitter around the house wherever he went.
Later, the dog licked sparkles off the floor and then threw up under the kitchen table. If you have ever wondered whether dog vomit could be improved upon by the addition of glitter, I can conclusively tell you: no.

Spike Cannon, Part 2
Beth: [age 4] "Remember, I'm Spike Cannon, the superhero!"
Mom: "What does Spike Cannon wear?"
Beth: "She has a cape that is brown and blue, and she has black hair."
Luke: [age 7] "Does she wear anything else besides a cape? Or is she a naked superhero?"
Beth: "She's not naked! But her cape is sparkly. She has a dress with all these fire decorations and power decorations on it. And a hat."
Mom: "What kind of hat?"
Beth: "It's like that hat you wear to the beach..."
Mom: "A sun hat?"
Beth: "Yes! A sun hat. But it has fire decorations and sparkles."
Luke: "Does she wear boots?"
Beth: "She doesn't wear boots. She wears a special kind of shoes that I made up. I can fly with them. They have fire wings this wide." [stretches hands out] "She also wears pants. And socks! I almost forgot socks."
Mom: "You can fly?!"
Beth: "Yes. I'll show you sometime. But not today."
Dinosaurs
Beth: [age 4, holding a book about dinosaurs] "Did you know that nobody has ever seen a real dinosaur? They all died a long time ago! All these pictures are just drawings! They don't REALLY know what color the dinosaurs were. Maybe they were white with purple stars! Maybe they had glitter all over them! Maybe they had fuzzy curly fur all over them like a pink poodle! That's what I think they looked like."
Me: "Really? You think the big scary T-Rex was pink and fuzzy and sparkly?"
Beth: "Oh yes. ESPECIALLY him!"
