Amazed. . .

Ruby: can get herself up and down.

Cooper: attempts to pee like a puppy.

Maxwell: Last night I'll admit, I was trying to entice the boys up to the bath. I said, "if we take a quick bath tonight, we can have double-books!" I had moderate success. After bath when it was time to read our books. . .
Max: I want double-three books!
Me: What's that?
Max: Six!
Me: (wondering if it's a fluke or if I should be amazed. . .) What's double-two?
Max: Four.
Me: (really wondering if I should be amazed. . .) This is a tough one, what's double-four?
Max: (after a moment) Eight!
Me: (wow)
Max: And double-ten is twenty!

So is this addition or multiplication? Either way, I'm blown away by my 5 year old.
