A Little Math For You

Because someone in this house (who will not be named) does not like to clip baby/little kid fingernails and toenails, the responsibility for keeping the kids from looking like street urchins falls to me.

This means that, including my own, I am responsible for the maintenance of 5 people's digits. 

5 x 20 = 100 fingers and toes.

Never thought this would be part of my job description.

  1. The only positive thing about being responsible for 5 peoples fingers and toes, is that (thank goodness) your not responsible for the 6th...which, no offense bro, are probably definitely the least cute of the 100 fingers and toes you are responsible for.

    :)

    But you are right. That is a LOT of fingers and toes. Do you wear your wonderwoman t-shirt on nail trimming days? If not you should.

  2. Can I add another set? We suck at doing Hedgehog's fingers and toes... It is a battle to see who has to do it each time.

    I'll admit it . . . nail care is probably my biggest weakness as a father. It has been since day 1 pretty much. No question this is a phenomenal amount of nail clipping. But good news, I figure you should be down to 70 digits, tops, in no time. Since Hops and Barley chews her finger nails down (until her fingers hurt) and Maxman should be able to handle his own soon. Things are looking up Wonder Woman!
