Evan Strikes Back!

It was inevitable. Nathan just kept pushing him. He kept taking his toy away. I saw the look of surprise and frustration turn to determined vengeance. This time, Evan did not find another toy. This time, he did not attempt to play with his brother. This time, Evan went straight for Nathan's head. The battle cry of our "young warrior" (The Celtic meaning of "Evan" is "young warrior")reverberated through the house! With a fierce and piercing gaze, he kung-fu gripped Nathan's hair and tackled him at the same time! His three sharp teeth searched for some extremity to sink into! He may be smaller than his brother, but he's fierce and fearless! Oh, the next eighteen years are going to be such fun! Do they make boxing gloves in infant and pre-school sizes?


(By the way, the English/Biblical meaning for Evan is, "Yahweh/God is gracious". We're hoping for a nice blending of the two meanings. Nathan is praying for grace!)
