This weekend was packed with family events: the final Yankee Stadium game I took my boys to last night, the Squeeze and James show Niki and I saw at Radio City Music Hall on Friday, our nice kid-free dinner in NYC before the show and swimming with all of our kids on Sunday. But one other item keeps popping into my memory.
On Saturday we took Jack to the first of his weekly soccer classes. They gave out team jerseys and his had the number nine on it. He wasn’t that thrilled with the shirt so I tried to put a positive spin on it. I reminded him that a nine is the biggest number you can make with just one number, but he told me I was wrong. He said, “Infinity is the largest number you can make with just one number. It looks like a sideways eight.”
Touché. I love that kid.
