That really makes sense, JJsMom. I'm going to remember that...

Annaliisa, congrats on all of the physical development of your dd. I think those things are great!

I don't know about you, but I have found it very enlightening to have a child who is slower in the athletic/coordination department. When I would see a younger child swimming across the pool, I would think, "Wow! It's possible for a 3-year-old to do that?" I'm sure that's how people must have felt hearing my dd read things. Like when then 3-year-old dd looked at a sample tube of tooth paste and said, "Look mom! This has 100% cavity protection!" Her dentist still talks about that one...
