09-09-09 - A Magical Day

It may be a magical day but homework still prevails. Emerson comes every Wednesday night for dinner and his homework assignment. Tonight the task was to find several household objects of which one could count at least 20. He had paperclips, rubberbands, Uno cards, and pennies (not shown). He actually (which, actually, "actually" is his favorite new word) managed to count up to 39 of most everything!

Today's news: Obama speaks to joint session of Senate and House re: health care reform. Joe Wilson lashes out.
Today in History: 1947– First actual case of a computer bug being found: a moth lodges in a relay of a Harvard Mark II computer at Harvard University.
