Ages at Aquarium

Yesterday we visited the Aquarium. Eddie had lots of fun watching the fish.

At the top of the big ocean tank, we saw the giant turtle swimming around. I heard that he was 85 years old.  I said to Eddie, "Wow! That turtle is 85 years old! How old are you?"

Eddie didn't hesitate; he's got this. "I'm 8," he said.

I poked him in the belly. "You're 2 and a half!" I told him.

Eddie laughed. "Papa's 2 and a half," he said.

"No, Papa's 30," I told him.

Eddie nodded thoughtfully. "Papa's 2 and a half," he said.
