Pi Poster

Izaak ~ Mom, you know that poster of Pi that I have at Dad's house?

Me ~ Yeah.

Izaak ~ We counted all of the of the digits on it, one at a time, and it took us THREE DAYS!

Me ~ Wha... Whoa!

Izaak ~ [Laughs] No we didn't!! I tricked you mom! I just used multiplication to figure it out.

Me ~ Ha ha ha... very funny Izaak.

Izaak ~ Yeah, I just counted up the rows and columns and multiplied them. There were 100 rows. I had to add 99 to my answer because in the first row, the decimal point took up one space. Yeah, I added 99 to make up for that.

Me ~ Dude, that's awesome. What was the answer?

Izaak ~ 27,299!

62 Digits of π!

He's ready for bed & about half asleep ~ but here's 62 digits of π!

30 Digits of π

He's up to 30 digits already!

20 Digits of π

He's working his way to 100!

FLASH!

After picking up Izaak from his after school care he ran to the car.

Normally, this kid is as slow as molasses:

Me - Izy, that's the speediest I've ever seen you get to the car!
Izaak - Well, I know I can't predict the future... but it's a possibility that I could grow up to become The Flash.

Telltale Grin

Me: Izaak, I can always tell when you're about to burp because you get this goofy grin on your face.
Izaak: Yeah, I know. I just can't stop it. Maybe I will when I'm older. Right now I can't really help it 'cause it's so funny!

~Happy 9th Birthday Izaak~

Eh, you can sell your knives Mom.

Upon learning that he would be attending an after school Martial Arts program, Izaak said...

Eh, you could probably sell all of your knives for extra money. I'll be able to chop stuff for ya! Well, maybe keep one knife, just in case.

Such a help.
