Nerd Wars

Hayes loves math. Bracken made up 10 addition questions for him to see if he could get them all right. It took a couple times of him correcting himself but he got them right. Then he wanted payback so he made up a loonnngg multiplication and subtraction question for Bracken. He didn't want to leave me out so he made one for me too. 27 minutes later...
Bracken showed Hayes how to use the calculator to see if we got all the right answers. Bracken and Hayes did, sadly I messed up on the last addition part. 14 digit number multiplication is a doozey.
Hayes told he'd give me an easier problem next Sunday. I told him I'd think of another family activity to do.

My favorite line today was when Hayes was facetiming Grandma Niece and she asked him what he wanted for Christmas. "A revolver!" He meant a rover...a robot he read about in a catalog but we all had a good time laughing about it while he showed us what he really meant.
