Counting

On Sunday evening, David was pretty wound up, so Dan sent him outside with a kitchen timer to see how many times he could go up and down the slide in five minutes. We were working on supper or something, and Dan went out after a few minutes to see how he was doing. David was frantically climbing up the steps and zooming down the slide as fast as he could go, panting and stumbling, but still counting, "Ninety-seven, ninety-eight, ninety-nine, NINETY-TEN!!!!! NINETY-ELEVEN!!!!" The abacus only goes up to 100, and I guess we've never discussed what happens after that! David does love the abacus.
