We have been talking about odd, even and prime numbers lately. Today there just happened to be 7 cheese sticks left in the box, so I asked the boys how we should divide them between the three of us. O counted the cheese sticks and without hesitating said, "One for you and three for us!"
"Is seven an even number?" I asked.
"No," said O, "That's why you get one!"
I guess that if there would have been only six, I would have been out of luck! (grin)
