And will you succeed?

Yes! You will, indeed!

@CheerBear Does puffer fish have a super sticky brain that words get stuck in? Sticky brains are cool because it means that entire super cool books like Oh the places you'll go can get stuck in them, but they are also uncool because bad stuff gets stuck too.

I love the term super sticky brain @Phoenix_Rising 🙂 I'm not 100% sure though I would not be surprised if they do, but maybe for some things but not others. We definitely have favourite (everythings) sometimes painfully so, which may be part of any stickiness. Puffer fish does have the most incredibly amazing numbers brain which blows my very non-numbers brain completely away - but that's not hard to do 😉

@CheerBear I think the stickiness of my brain is associated with the big feelings. It is very well recognised that people remember emotionally charged events more so than non-emotionally charged events. Thus, given that I get big feelings in response to LOTS of things, I also get LOTS of things stuck in my brain.

I think it is also related to the super high level of interest that extra awesome people like puffer fish and I have when we get focused on something. I know I am completely obsessed with Oh the places you'll go at the moment.

I super love that little puffer fish has surpassed you in the maths department, because my understanding is that little puffer fish is really quite little. Awwwwwww if I could come and play with puffer fish we would have mountains of fun reading Dr. Seuss books and then we could have mountains of fun playing with inferential statistics.

That makes sense with the big feelings stickiness @Phoenix_Rising. I had a scary eye opener when a big feelings memory of theirs re the big bang surfaced for them not too long ago.

Suuuuuper busting exploding busting enthusiasm for interesting things happening also. And while school is keeping their interest, what they are learning is amazing. It's why it's worth staying.

I can only imagine the fun you'd both have! Mass is the thing of today 🙂 I'd love watching that, with no idea what you were on about lol

[Phoenix_Rising]

Ooooh I just went back and looked at the picture of us all reading together @CheerBear. I super love that I can sit and read with you and puffer fish. What sort of maths are we doing at the moment? I know this isn't your strong point - here, I'll help:

+ means adding something to something else.

- means taking one thing away from another thing.

I was just writing a reply about deadlines being tricky to really explain here (and potentially unsafe) and my head started not working because I can't make sense of it myself after today, when this email came through and made me big laugh.

Now that explains heaps about what puffer fish is on about 😛 Plus and Minus - gotchya 😉

there is lots of Dr. Seuss books @Phoenix_Rising, @CheerBear
