Later, I remembered he is a very avid Toronto Blue Jays fan so Im sure he had heard of Alex Avila before. I about hugged him when he did so, and blurted out, Yes Oh my God, thank you Yes, its Madeline. He asked how old she was and was her pronouncing her name correctly. We were almost next for Stephen Amell to sign our things and Madeline put her Casey Jones mask and started looking around for Casey Jones the Green Arrow as she calls Mr. I paid the 60 to get a second autograph and bring Matt home a signed figure too. We waited in line for a good hour when we finally were able to get up to exchange our autograph voucher for a sticky note with Madelines name on it attached to her Arrow figure she wanted signed and personalized to herself. I handed over her Batman figure, while I got the Arrow figures I had brought from home in my hands. I realized we needed to get to the Stephen Amell autograph line, so I tried to gently push her along and we wound our way through the throngs of people to the back end of room where his line was already crazy. I gripped her hand nervously as I tried to navigate her through the crowd of people, waiting for the go ahead to run to whatever lines or vendors they were interested into going to first. Normally shes pretty stubborn and wants to be independent, but now was not the time to be trying those skills. I had told Madeline numerous times to not let go of my hand, and that there were going to be lots of people and I didnt want to get lost. We had made the trek the night before to get our bands and passes, so this morning we were able to just walk across the street and go right into the convention. I was nervous about us eating there, since Madeline is on a restricted diet and isnt a big eater in general, so I slipped an apple from the breakfast buffet and some snacks from the car ride into my bag before we left and headed over. I packed her tennis shoes, and made sure I had our Funko Pop figurines to be signed. I had fun, she said, speaking of our adventure from the day before of visiting the Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum, and Adler Planetarium.
