I must confess THIS is the photo I wanted to include in my previous post about the birthday parties that I’ve been throwing for the Constitution the last several years at my kids’ elementary school.  It’s a “double” cookie cake because this was the most cost-effective way to have cakes for both 4th grade classes.  The kids love it because it has lots of icing; I like it because I have them spell out “We the People” on the document, providing a nice lead-in to our discussion.  We talk about how in the American form of government, uniquely, sovereignty or power resides outside the government with the people.

Calling my daughter – Anne – “Super Annie” is an inside, family joke.  We all precede our name with “Super” when we think we’ve done something really outstanding.  I started the tradition by calling myself “Super Mom”, many times jokingly, when I do the things all moms are tasked with – many times simultaneously.  I even received “Super Mom” PJs one year as a Mother’s Day present!  In this particular case, Anne earned the distinction.  After lamenting the fact that I knew I had a photo of one of the Constitution Day cookie cakes but couldn’t find the photo to include with my post, she went straight to our desktop computer and produced it!  Better late than never?  Thanks, “Super Annie!”
