Today's Math

I was trying to get Malia to take a nap when Jeffrey came running in, "Mom, I'm done with my math. Can I play now?"
"Okay, what did you do?"
"I made up some really hard adding in my head."
"Alright, tell me about it."
"Well, I did one million plus one hundred plus one million plus one hundred. It's 2,000,200. It took me a few seconds to figure it out. It was really hard."
No matter how hard he tried to justify himself 'a few seconds' of math doesn't count in my book. I made him do his multiplication tables 2s and 10s. Poor thing.
