Okay, so one night Rod was gone and I was trying to make dinner. Katie was in the walker, in the kitchen. Cristiana and I ate pancakes, in the kitchen, as they came off the iron skillet. All I could think of was how adding another ankle biter to the picture made my life grow at an expontential rate. :-) But, the definition never really said what I wanted it to say . . .
exponential
ek-spoh-nen-shuhl
• Math of or involving numbers raised to an exponent
• Informal very rapid
• Relating to a mathematical expression containing one or more exponents. Something is said to increase or decrease exponentially if its rate of change must be expressed using exponents. A graph of such a rate would appear not as a straight line, but as a curve that continually becomes steeper or shallower.
