What is a hero?

This is spirit week at the high school, so the girls have been making some effort to join in the dress-up days.

Today was "Super-hero Day".  We offered to search for capes or help with other costumes, but neither girl seemed interested. 

But, this morning Oksana put a sign on her shirt that read, "Exchange student is already a hero."

As the mother of a child who died from cancer, I suppose my definition of a hero is a bit different than some.  And then again ... I haven't seen many Ukrainian/Russian movies ... perhaps sexy-future-fashion-model is her secret identity?
