Oh no Kriston! I'm glad that the missed bus stop wasn't as big a deal for your DS. (I'd be a bit miffed at the driver too!)

Mom2twoboys - I have approached the discussions about DS's giftedness by asking advice; I described DS's abilities, and asked what did they think we should do? (Caveat - we were armed with test results and a psychologist's report, and we contacted the school last spring.) In your situation, I would probably do exactly what your DH suggested, and give examples of the types of things he is reading.

Great news Wyldcat and JJsmom!
