The Prince bought The Rabbit some boxing gloves a year or so ago. She used them for awhile as a paper weight for her pictures and scribbles.
Tonight, The Prince got them out and encouraged her to hit him silly. She took to them, perhaps a little too well. After a minute, he brought her out to give me my turn.
You've never seen anything as scary as you're five year old hauling ass on your arm, with a hawk-like intensity burrowed into her face. After a minute or so, I finally made her stop. Seriously - I was bruising.
"But I like to box, mama." She said.
That's all good, but mama needed a little break.
She took a side-long glance. Then turned and muttered. "Loser."

Mine love the big blow-up punching thing Nana bought. Better than using the little brother I guess (although it is quite the eyesore).
BTW, I've left you something on my Funhouse blog, because I love your blog!
