Mom's notes-
Isabella - Mom, I need a snack before bed.
Me- You do?
Isabella - yes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 ten snacks before bed.
Me- So anything over ten is mine.
(Isabella thinks about this hard)
Isabella - okay
(I hand Isabella a pack of fruit snacks)
Isabella - That's not ten mom.
Me - There are ten snacks inside.
Isabella - Oh mom! That is not what I meant.
Me - Count how many are inside.
(I open the pack for Isabella)
Isabella - 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13. .. (fades off)
Me - How many snacks are there?
Isabella (mouth full) Only ten mom, you can count if you want to.
(By gosh there were only ten snacks... REMAINING)
