Law of Approximation

Saturday afternoon Mom and Elvish are shopping for a birthday gift for a cousin.A pact was signed for picking something small in the store for the “special helper” .

After the gift was picked,the attention is on picking a Ben 10 item for Elvish.After a lot of thoughts,Elvish manages to pick a Ben 10 figurine.

Mom : We talked about something less than 3 dollars.This costs 7 dollars.I think that’s way too pricey for a figurine.

Elvish : But I want it ! It’s the only one I want .

Mom : You can pick something else in the store that costs lesser than 3 bucks.

Elvish determined to convince on this one

Elvish : But mom, 7 dollars is near 6,and 6 is near 5 and 5 is near 4 and 4 is near 3. I think its very close. We can still get it.



He has a new definition for the law of approximation. But nevertheless,he was convinced finally he needed to pick something else and save this one for his birthday list but it was hard not to laugh when he reasoned out with me like a big boy.
