At times. For some reason journal writing takes DS a long time at school. He has great handwriting and spelling and gets most of everything right the first time. At PT conference the teacher said that she has to really work with him on doing a rough and a final draft because he thinks his rough should be his final. She did say that they looked almost identical but she is trying to get him to revise and add more content and ideas. His thinking is "I got it right the first time, why am I doing it all over again" LOL. Anyhow, I think he goes slow because of that. Generally he is quick unless distracted or uninterested.

Happy B-day to all the holiday babies! My DS6 is a summer baby : )
