GaimanWatch: Yes, why exactly did your husband tell Neil Gaiman that your son wanted to punch him in the face? "And my son — when we told him? He's not much of a boxer either — never thrown a real punch in his life — but he didn't hesitate "Good," he said, "he's been[...]

I mean it's… I love my family.
