I Got 16 Back!


Isaac had a good weekend in hockey. So far this year, he's scored 10 goals all year. On Saturday, he scored 6 more (8 if you count the 2 he scored after the buzzer went and players were going to the bench to change but he was too focused to realize everyone was leaving the ice)

Anyway, he likes to count accumulatively so after his first goal, he said he scored 11 and so on. After hockey, he was telling everyone he scored 16 goals that day and I would correct him and say, actually, you've only scored 6 today but all season you've scored 16 and he would reply, actually daddy, i scored 16 today. The first couple of times was cute, then not so cute. I got out some wagon wheels for props and showed him 10 representing the goals he had scored year to date and the six he scored yesterday and had him count them out. Finally, he got it and said, Ok daddy, i just scored six today. After a while we were talking to papa and had said that he scored 6 but I then asked him how many he had scored all year... he paused, looked at me puzzled, and I said, you've scored 16 all year. He jumped up all excited... "Yay, I got 16 back again"

I also indoctrinated him in to the skills competition at the all star game. He was so hyper, like he had had 15 coffee's. The thought of 30 NHL teams on the ice at one time was too much for him to handle. He was trying to figure out which teams were on the West and which players were on the "EASTERS" He thought it was rather funny that he "EASTERS" only had 1 toronto maple leaf until he realized there was only one Montreal Canadien too. Thankfully the "EASTERS" be the West team 8-7 and he could go to sleep happy.
