Mind over Matter

While we were in a pool on Saturday, Max and Tyler were having races across the pool. Tyler would give Max a few seconds head-start where Max would scramble dog-paddle-style with his water wings on to reach my outstretched arms. I would then pull him to a narrow victory. All the while Tyler was swimming as slow as he possibly could without drowning. He would usually count to 3 or 5. One time Max, feeling the pressure, said, 'Stop Counting!' So I suggested Tyler start doing ABCs instead.

Max replied by saying, 'Count to Zed!'
