Miyomoto would be embarassed for me!!

Out walking with my wife in a nature type area. My wife is a tiny Vietnamese fireball. She has a Kung Fu background like myself so we have a great time. In fact she is probably one of the best sparring partners i have ever had. She is tiny and very unpredictable in her attacks--somehow she just has this "instinct" and determination. So we are walking and talking; I see a few nice sticks about 31/2 feet long-nice "sword fighting" sticks. I hand her one and i take the other and as i do i give her the "En Guard" stance and a smile. Now honestly how many of us really actually do any real sword fighting? Sure i have Sword forms and techniques i practice all the time, but combat--probably most of us have not done sword combat. Well my wife suddenly fiercely and i mean freakin fierce starts hacking and driving me back like Miyomoto on starbucks. It was all i could do to not get whipped by the branch as she relentlessly came at me and drove me back--ok whats the lesson/ I do not know other than beware of tiny Asian woman with sticks and stones!!!! and maybe don't play with swords!! Always training for real!!
