We should have a place for good stories. After three years of disastrous experiences with my oldest ds, I was scared to think how school would be for my youngest ds because of his very intense personality. I did not know what to expect from the first teacher parent conference. After 10 min listening about how great my ds is and how much she loves his enthusiasm about everything, I was almost crying. At last there was another human who gets my ds! He loves drawing and is very detail oriented; she gives him Ed Emberley book to use in class for drawing. He is in love with the book, and now we have one at home as well. He can draw from it for long periods of time.
This is my first post here, I want to add, that this board has helped me so much to better understand my children.
