Today, Blake made up a game that resembled, "Memory" but with numbers. He laid out 12 cards on the carpet facing down. I went first, "Mommy, grills, always go first..."
I then began to make matches, that consisted of finding one number, and then the next number that comes after it. That is a match. Example, find the 6 card, now look for the 7. Sometimes, Blake would find two #3 cards, and all of a sudden the rules changed...
When all the cards were picked up, he told me that whoever has the highest stack, wins. My stack included all of the cards, except for the two cards Blake had in his hand.
Then, out of no where he says, "So this is the part in the game where we begin sharing our cards with each other." He took 3-4 out of my hand, and gave me 1. Then he would compare our stacks, and come back for another handful of my cards.
Finally, he sets both stacks next to each other and says with a sly grin, "Good game Mommy, but it looks like I won this hand. Better luck next time."
