Knute, great link, thanks. My daughter is much happier to read to me and talk about math now that it is summer and she doesn't have preschool! She is also mostly interested in playing with her brother ... Long, complex games of good and evil, big life themes. She hasn't asked much about the gaggle of preschool girls she ran with last year, but we have had a few over for playdates, which she seems to mildly enjoy but not talk much about afterwards.

Jeez, never thought I would be seriously considering homeschooling! No offense to homeschoolers, just never thought it would be on my radar. I really want her to learn to be proud of her smarts and skills, though.
