Memory Whiz


Claire is a memory whiz. She is really, really good. I was a big memory fan at her age, and used to love playing with my mom. I'm pretty competitive, and never let my kids win at games. I think they should have a real sense of accomplishment if they beat me. I thought I still had few years left to beat the kids at skill games. But either my memory skills are slipping, or my six year-old is pretty darn good (or maybe both). This is what happened today: we tied! (see photo below). I usually beat her by several matches. Sometimes more than several. But today we tied. Tomorrow she'll be wiping the floor with me! Go Claire!

No, that is not a horn coming out of Claire's head in the top photo- it is the handle of my tea kettle.
