John Van's Mathematical Mind

5/18/11


While preparing for bed, John found some coins.  Here's the conversation that ensued:



John:  Look, Mommy, coins!

Me:  Cool, John.  How many are there?  (Always the math teacher...)

John:  1, 2, 3, 4, 5!!

Me:  Great job, Bud! 

I am intent on leaving it at that for now.  John, however, is not.  He proceeds to take some of the coins off the dresser, leaving a few behind.

John:  Mommy, look!  I took two away.  Now there are three!!

I have come to the realization that poor John has no hope and will NOT be able to escape the influence of being brought up by two math teachers... :)
