Gentlemen Prefer Fronds

Okay, so here is photographic documentation of how the introduction of a sibling into a previously solitary game can end in bloodshed:
(click to enlarge)
1. Trevi peacefully plays bubbles in the backyard.

2. Clara decides to join in on the fun.

3. With a devilish gleam in his eye, Trevor abandons his bubble wand for a stray palm frond.

4. He thinks what a nice bubble-popper the frond would make.

5. Clara tries to convince him to "Stop that."

6. She repeats her request.

7. The frond is magically transformed into a baseball bat, and I decide that I'd better put the camera down, or the next photo will be one I'll have to take with me to Kaiser, to show the
doctor exactly how a shard of palm frond came to be lodged in Clara's nostril.
