Thanks everyone! I loved Dr. Ruf and so did my daughter but honestly I had no idea she was so widely known and published when we went to see her. She was just a local psychologist who tested kids for gifted ness!
We will just take things one step at a time for now and see what happens. We decided to also apply for early admission at another classical school that is further away so we will see. I just really feel that she wouldn't benefit from another year in preschool and while I could homeschool her I'd rather not since I also have almost 3 year old identical twins.
Thanks for making me feel welcome!
Is there anyone else here who didn't even really suspect their child was gifted? Smart, yes. Gifted, no. There was nothing really extraordinary about her milestones until she caught on quickly to reading. (My preemie twins on the other hand...)
