Thank you all for your help and suggestions. I feel so much better and accepted. After I posted, I thought that I may offend others by worrying if my DS is hyperactive. This is just because society seems to equate ADHD or hyperactivity with learning disabilities. DS's preschool teacher did mention that he is easily distracted. I chalked it up to the fact that they spent the ENTIRE school year learning the alphabet (how borring!) I explained to her that he learns constanly even when you think he's not paying attention. I have found so much understanding here, it is so helpful to know that I'm not alone!
