We are moving to OR!

Yes, the rumors are true.
Jen's parent's house isn't selling very quickly, so we will go "babysit" the house for a while (could be 2 weeks, could be 6 months, who knows). We suspect we'll be there until I graduate or, better yet, get a steady income and we can buy our own. However, if the house sells, all the better :)

Contact us for the address and phone.

FYI, this is the 4th time since we were married that we are packing everything into a storage and moving away for a while--oh the joys of life, eh?

Math at our house...

So we were sitting around the table eating oatmeal this morning and Eli was showing me some patterns in the number chart we have under the plastic cover (1-100 in rows of 10). We started looking at how that pattern happens by adding 0 (zero) to the 1's place and a 1 to the 10's place. He picked that up and noticed the same patterns down the other columns.

Enoch came over and showed that he can make other patterns by adding a 0 onto the end of a number. It was great fun.

Well, we went back to eating and Enoch said, "Dad, can Math go to the circus?"

"Um, sure... what do you mean?"

"Math has lots of tricks and I thought it could do them at the circus."

You know, for being 5 and 7, those two are pretty observant and are willing to expand what they know. Yes, I am probably biased, but I think they are pretty clever.

If you don't believe in math tricks (or that math is fun), perhaps this will convert you

PS... some from Wymount may have noticed this same post... well, that is the danger when you have more than one blog to post to. I'll try to keep redundancy to a minimum. :)
