It's a Kinda of Magic

[yendi]

Just had one of those great Daddy moments. Elayna came up to me and asked if I knew the magic trick to fold a dollar bill three times, unfold it, and have it turn upside down. This happens to be one of the few tricks I have mastered (and I'd never shown it to her, so she had no way of knowing). So she now knows her first magic trick!
