After Emma’s registration last week, I decided to teach her our phone number. She had learned the first three numbers in school. All I had to do was write down the whole thing and then teach her the rest. Our last four digits are 0437. I told her to remember that 0 came first and then 4 and 3 add up to 7. That’s how I would remember it and we really do learn the same. She’s known it ever since. I ask her every day what it is.
Well, the other night, I had her recite it (555-0437) to Mom and Dad and this is what she says…
“Five. Five. Five. Line. Zero. Four. Three. Seven.”
