Gavin's Tale Twister #53: CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS WITH CHEESE MELTING POWERS

So...Gavin and I were driving down the road on the way to soccer practice when Gavin says
" Mom,  if you could be any super hero with any super power, which one would you be?"
I just wanted to drive in peace and enjoy silence so I was irritated by the question.  I glanced over with the like really look on my face. Gavin's response ... "hurry Mom you only have 3 seconds 3..2..1..come on Mom 3..2..1."  Seeing that Gavin was really into this so called game, I obliged and with enthusiasm said "uh, uh  OK, uh, I'd be Super Ant with super strength!"
Gavin's eyes shifted my way and his head followed with this response " Really Mom! You know there is already Ant Man with super strength powers!"
"OK Gavin! Smarty pants! Your turn and you've got 3  seconds... 3,2,1...1,2,3 come on Gavin give me a good one too."
"First of all your not counting correctly and let's see, I would be Captain Underpants with cheese melting strength."
Now my eyes shift over to Gavin and my head follows.
"Really Gavin! What the heck is cheese melting strength?"
Now this is a true 12 year old explanation!
Gavin looked at me like duh and pointed to the road in front of us and said "slice of American cheese on the road!" He put his second and third finger of both hands on the temples of his head, squeezed his eyes together concentrating on the so called cheese on the road while he grunts and said "Bam!" He has one arm outstretched like he just performed a magic trick and says "Instant road hazard!!"
This followed with a bobble head nodding motion like yea I aced that question!  I know I only have a little time left before Gavin grows out of his childhood. His world is so great!!
