food for thought

Ben's been doing a lot of "greater than/less than" (>/<) exercises in school lately, so in honor of his birthday: <> 7 kinds of airplanes for which he knows the technical specifications

< 7 hours of labor (it actually felt more like 7 minutes)

< 7 nights I have been away from him

> 7 kinds of airplanes for which he knows the technical specifications

> 7 plane rides this past year

> 7 times a day he will happily build and rebuild the Lego mail plane I brought him from Chicago

< 7 items on his birthday party menu (he'd like to serve cupcakes, raspberries, kumquats, milk, water and orange juice)

> 7 x 7 to the 7th that I love him.



edited to add: I am blogging about birthday cake over at Learning to Eat.
