While driving the car, I looked in the rear view mirror to see my seven year old son lean slowly across the back seat toward his older sister. His movements were deliberate so as not to be seen by me.
Then in a hushed tone I heard him say, “Hey, Sis. Let’s play slug bug so I can slug you.”

Of course as the driver, and probably tallest person in the car, you can spot the bugs first and pretty much slug whoever you want the whole time. I'm in!

It's like when they hand you a water pistol for filling, so they can then shoot you with it.

Nothing like a really exciting game of hitting your sister to perk a boy up. 🙂
