A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    This made my day. I actually have refered to my mother as momasaurus and have done for years. I saw this, nearly fell over laughing, and emailed it to her.

    Bonus: It’s her birthday.

    Ha! Far more clever than the banner-around-heart mom tattoos. And certainly more fitting, ’cause moms can be scary!
