ax²+bx+c

Ahh….algebra!  Like a breath of fresh air!  Straightforward, concrete, definite.  One  and only one correct answer to every problem.  If only all of life were as algebra…..

 

I got a chance to help my cousin out with her algebra this weekend.  Nice because 1) I hardly ever see her, 2) I love to teach algebra, and 3) I love to do math.  It didn’t take us any time at all and her confusion cleared right up and she figured out what she was doing.  She’s a smart cookie, that one!  Then we all got to play with J-man and chat, and hear all about cousin A’s new prom dress!  She’s so excited, and I’m so in denial that she is old enough to be going to prom!!!  I was having a hard enough time swallowing the fact that she DROVE to my house!  Where, oh where does the time go?
