Yeah, there is a phrase I never thought to use, but Anna definitely still loves math. We were driving today when she started the following conversation:
A: Does 8 squared equal 64?
WTH? Where did that come from?!
C: Yes. What is 10 squared?
Without missing a beat...
A: 100
C: How about 20 squared?
A: 200...no, wait, 400.
C: What is 9 squared?
A: 81
B: How did you figure that out?
A: Well, 8 squared is 64, so I added 8, so that's 8 times 9, then I added 9. See? 81. Easy.
DEFINITELY takes after her Daddy...lucky girl. :)
