A Masterpiece I Came Across on the Internet.

It is a 6. No, it is a 9.

When our son was just starting to learn his numbers, he had a hard time with the number “6”. In fact, he refused to acknowledge it. If we showed him a picture of a “6”, he would flip it around and say it was a “9”.

The more we insisted it was a “6”, the more determined he was to show us it was a “9”. He even went so far as to skip 6 entirely when counting to 10. 😂

We began explaining to him that the 9 can actually be two different things, depending on how you look at it. If you turn it upside down, it becomes a 6. It all depends on how you look at it. We told him some things could actually be seen in more than one way.

It took a while, but one day he just got it. He looked at a 6 on a flash card and called it a 6! He started counting to 10 and including the 6! And one day he said, “Mommy, the 6 is an upside-down 9!” 😅👍️

Something amazingly beautiful had begun. He started saying that a “W” was an upside down “M” and that a “P” was an upside-down “d”!” 😍🤗

We all have different perspectives, even on the matter of perspective!
