The Contender

Below is a picture of Zack after going 12 rounds in a match on the new reality series "Toddler Contender" where they pit up-and-coming boxers against each other at a very early age.

Actually, Zack has pinkeye. His first (and certianly not last) sickness contracted from daycare. 1 hour before the picture was taken, his eye was so swolen it wouldn't even open. But eyedrops have been clearing it right up. If I thought wiping a raw and bleeding bottom was the worst of the necessary things to do to a child, I stand corrected. It seems as if trying to get a single drop in the swolen eye of a toddler can elicit new depths of screaming and pain. Only 12 more times to go, says the medication...
