how much longer?
the residents make me laugh sometimes. they are so anxious to go into the dining room for their meals. like we're not going to feed them or something if they don't get in there right away. we constantly have them lined up at the door, waiting for it to open. 'how much longer?' 'is it time to go in yet?' 'can we eat now?'
so today, genevieve asked me how long it would be until i opened the door. 'it'll be eight minutes.'
'oh, that's not so long. that's just five minutes and then three more.'

yeah - i like how she thinks sometimes :)
What wonderful math skills! When my kids ask that question and I say 10 minutes or so the always say, How long will that take?
Sadly, they are homeschooled...
talk about good parenting - my kids measured time by tv shows. "how long is 15 minutes?" "half a 'blue's clues'".
and the ride from our house to grandma's was one "little mermaid"
