Here's something you can learn from a kindergartener

Did you know that the number googol (yes, that's the correct spelling), is a 1 with 100 zeros behind it? Lindsey taught me was a googol was. I had to Google it to confirm, and she is correct.

And then she wrote one. it took about 20 minutes. She agonized over every zero and erased and re-wrote a few. But at least along the way she counted her way to 100 a couple of times!
