Faster than a speeding baseball; more powerful than a shopping cart with a wobbly tire; able to leap tall piles of laundry in a single bound; she's Supermom. Disguised as a gentlewoman, Supermom fights the never-ending battle for truth, ("Who broke the window"?); justice, ("Everyone is grounded just to make sure I'm punishing the right one".), and the American dream, ("Do your homework or no video games".).

If you can balance the checkbook, do the laundry, wash the dishes, change a diaper, wipe a nose, play taxi driver, and still have dinner ready before midnight, then you too are a member of the "Just Us" league and are a true "Supermom".

It doesn't matter if you have a full time job or are a stay-at-homer, if you've got children, your life is full of mishaps, accidents, and of course there's that mysterious stranger our children refer to as Mr. "Nobody", and his accomplice, Ms. "I. Don't Know". These are the arch-rivals of every Supermom. When you ask, "Who knocked over the lamp?", the answer usually comes back as "Nobody" or "I don't know". These two villains have been on a crime spree for decades. They are famous for breaking windows, stealing the last chocolate chip cookie, and have been known to throw all of your children's blankets outside just before it rains.

Supermoms have the ability to fix boo-boos with only a Band-Aid and a kiss. We play judge and jury on several issues, including 'The Case of the Ball on Top of the House', and 'The Case of the Missing Book Report'. Our super-human strength allows us to handle the toughest of situations, like popularity issues and stains on favorite T-shirts. We do it all, and we do it well.

Supermoms can feed fifty people with only a loaf of bread and a can of tuna. We can throw a birthday party with only a skein of yarn and some old newspapers. We will drive to the ends of the earth for our children to attend some activity that promises to inspire, educate, and pass out patches when it's over.
