Spiderman got me up this morning

Last night we had a great practice at the tai chi school in Raleigh. I
got home at 8:30 pm, had a light dinner, read books with my 3 year old
son, and then we hit the rack. This morning at 4:15 a.m. there was a
tapping on my back, 'Dad, get up, it's time for me to be Spiderman.' We
suited up (let me rephrase, 'he suited up') and I got coffee. I knew
there would be no traditional morning practice, except with him.
After a few minutes of hard play, he says, 'Dad, go practice tai chi'. So you know about my 3 year old, that is his code for "Dad, I don't want you watching me, I have something to do." I usually bargain out a few minutes of tai chi and posting with him and cut him loose.
All before 5 a.m. this morning. Cooked breakfast, and started our day. No, he didn't go back to sleep, never cried and was full blast at the day care by 8 am. "I'll get you Spiderman"
