What uncles are good for

Makaela got some good bonding time with her uncles while we were in NY. Her uncle Joe (or uncle Boe as she refers to him) introduced her to the skateboard and then showed her how fun it was to use it indoors on a tiled floor...visions of head injuries flashed in my mind. Her uncle Mike spoiled her rotten with lots of girly clothes, a hot pink skirt that practically rains glitter and a rhinestone studded watch. Just when you think he's gotten her all diva'ed up, he pulls out the UFC training gloves and starts going rounds with her. She may look like a little girl, but she sure doesn't punch like one anymore (just ask the poor boy at daycare).
