The kids were talking about when Shea was born, what year, what day, etc. Shea, being the quick, one could say flip, one came back with “I had a party in Mom’s tummy you guys, I had snacks, did you know there is a store in there?”
No, there wasn’t.
“Yah ha… it closed when I came out.”

The kids are between two and three years apart, however, as a six year old conceptualizes this difference it’s only by current age.
K: “Shea and I are only one year apart”
R: “No, you are not.”
K: “Yes, there is only a 5 in between.”
R: “What are you talking about?”
K: “Shea is 4 and I am 6.”
R: “Yahhhhhh”
K: “Well, it’s just 5 in between. 4…. 5….. 6, one year apart.”
R: “Ummmm, no Kate you are totally wrong you are 2 years and 8 months apart.”
K: “No, it’s just 5 in between, we are a year apart, right Shea?”
S: “Right Kate. Reilly you just don’t know. It’s just 5 in between.”
