From the mouths of...oldest children.

So we are sitting at supper last night and Tom is trying to teach the girls some basic math. He was using cookies ~ always an attention getter. Our oldest was working the if-I-yell-louder-then-it-must-be-right theory, and was doing pretty well. 2+2=4, 3+1=4, etc. Tom finally asked what does 1+1=? So, my mind starts wandering (it often does when math is involved) about how 1+1 in life equals 3. And how sweet the kids are and so forth when she yells, "1+1= "I". Hmmm....how true.
