Cardsharps...

With the basic 1-9 addition facts in the mental books of HRH and The Prosecutor, it was time to pull out the Mille Bornes and begin play...

It's not so much that i lost TWICE to a six year old, not that at all...it's that she brags about it... all...the...way...to...bed.

Mille Bornes teaches so many good skills to kids, obviously addition, paying attention, reading comprehension, paying attention, good sportsmanship, paying attention, and above all...sticking it to Dad as much and as often as possible, because you KNOW that if he gets the chance, he will do the same to you, without remorse.

So, with that in mind...i'll slog off to their royal bedchamber and begin an installment of John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress...

"Art thou for something rare, and profitable
Wouldest thou see a Truth within a Fable?"

Ah loves me some Bunyan.

I think I know where she got her bragging skills too.

That's what we play at my folks' home, Mille Bourne. My boys LOVE it...
