20 knots....

After school today, my 4 year old CT asked me to tie his shoe. I noticed his teacher smirking knowingly as I bent down to fufill the request. That is when I noticed that his shoe was not in need of tying, as it already had 20 knots (yes, we counted...there were exactly 20). Later I asked him why he had 20 knots in his shoelace. Legitimate question, right? Allegedly he had asked a teacher to tie his shoe and no one heard him. So he decided to tie it himself. I would say he succeeded tremendously.
