On my day off, Bobo decided to sort through his treasure box with me.  A four-year-old's treasure box is full of a lot of things that I would not myself value, and it was very interesting to see what he wanted to keep.  He said he was going to get rid of all the pieces of paper and all the leaves.  I held up a box that once held a dozen ballpoint pens, and asked if he was keeping it.  "Oh! Yes!" he exclaimed.  "I need it to punch people."  He slid his fist into it and made punching motions.
