Math Problems

Today is my dad's 67th birthday. Two weeks ago was my 29th birthday, so if you do the math, that means he was 2 weeks shy of of his 38th birthday when I was born. 

If someone asked me how old my dad was though, I always had to think about it, and then, do the math.  Though despite my math prowess, adding 38 to my age always flummoxed me.  But after years of simply trying to add two numbers in my head failed me, I finally figured out a way that was easier for me.  Now, I add 40 then subtract 2.  Yep, I added an extra step. 

Math prowess indeed!

Happy birthday dad!
