ME:” Adding with nine is easy to remember because Nine always wants to steal a One from the other number in the sum to turn himself into Ten.”

Lani: “Shouldn’t he just borrow it”

Me: “Huh?”

Lani: “It’s nicer”

Me: “Yes it is but Nine isn’t nice, he’s always stealing one from the other number”

Lani: “Well my Nine doesn’t he just borrows it!”

I think we may be missing the point here.
