Kids live out their superhero dreams
Mable or "Spider-Mable" (her last name has not been made public) is one of the many children out there fascinated with superheroes. Thanks in large part to blockbuster movies such as "Avengers" and "The Dark Knight," children love to dress as their favorite superheroes. In Mable's case, she was allowed to live out her superhero fantasies on September 28, 2015, one special day in Edmonton, Alberta, thanks to the Make a Wish Foundation.

Keren Espinoza shot this photo of her then 19-month-old son, Jaden, standing on the seventh floor of Macy's in San Francisco last year. The Superman shirt and cape is one of her favorite outfits to put on him. "I love to see him run and swing at the park; he looks like his cape really makes him fly."
