My son is 3 years old. He LOVES Iron man. Sometimes he’ll ask for me to draw a Tony Stark mustache on him with my eyeliner pencil. Aside from his epic nerdiness, even at his young age, he drew a parallel between his love for Jesus and Iron Man. He told me one day “Mom, when you love Jesus, it’s like Iron Man. You get a new heart.” Maybe he’s a future co-blogger!
