10's a high number to count to.

As we sat beside the water, next to the boat house at Bethesda Fountain, we were watching all the struggling boat enthusiasts and making up our own little stories to along with each group.  After a little while a little girl walked up with her parents, and like parents do they started asking her questions to get her thinking.  She couldn't have been more than 4 and her dad leaned down and asked, "Sweetie, how many boats are there?" She lifted her pointer finger and started counting, "1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7, 8, 9, 10..." She paused.  "Daddy, I can't count that high."  It was just the cutest thing.  She stated it so matter of factly.
