Math Moments with Banana Boy

Driving home from a cross-country meet one night, BB was counting by 10s. I had him practice counting by 5s. I asked him if he could count by 2s. I said, "You know, like 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12..."

So he begins, "3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, ...um, 31, ...." He kept going to 109!!! Yeah, he missed one or two in there somewhere. But what an amazing boy!

Nonny and I just sat there (well, I kept driving, she sat there) with our mouths hanging open in amazement! I never taught him that. We never practiced that.

He astounds me every day.
