Dominoes

Quick post because it's bed time...

I was amazed at this today... after a delicious fajita dinner with Michelle, Gary, and Douglas, I decided to pull out the dominoes to play with Douglas.  James said that he wanted to play so I turned over all the dominoes and told him to choose five which he did perfectly.  I then put the double 6 down and I was about to walk James though which tile to play when he grabbed one of his tiles and lined it up correctly with the 6!!!  (I guess some little man already knows how to play this game!)  We continued to take turns playing our tiles until James got down to his last tile.  The two numbers at each end were a zero and five and James had the 2-3 tile left.  Before I could say a word, he moved two tiles with the number 2 on them apart from each other and placed his 2-3 tile between them perpendicularly.  I was about to explain to him that he couldn't do that but when I looked up at him he had such a look of "I did it!  Now what!?!?!"  All I could do was lift my jaw back into place and ask if he wanted to play again!!!
