Fighting Styles

Our twins are identical but spend a few minutes with them and you'll soon notice a host of differences.  Daniel LOVES to eat.  Nathan eats because he has to.  Daniel is a lefty and prefers to kick balls while Nathan, a righty, prefers to throw them (more on this in a minute).  

And then there's the fighting styles:  Nathan prefers to use hand held weapons of opportunity to attack his opponents while Daniel prefers taking his opponents (like siblings) to the ground with a unique combo style of Sumo wrestling, UFC ground fighting, and the old backup...the bite.

A look back at the past couple weeks puts the two in a dead tie.  Nathan a few bruises to match the knots on Daniel's head.  Nathan has a wicked overhand throw and it's fairly accurate.  He's nailed Daniel a couple times with balls, wooden blocks, etc....from across the room.  I think Daniel's getting paranoid because he'll start crying or dive for cover behind me as soon as he sees Nathan picking something up.  I thought it was funny until I took one in the head.
