The other thing to keep in mind is that every GT child is different. DS5 is a great reader now, but he wasn't an early reader like many that post. So hearing about your DD sounding out her first word at 2 is definitely amazing to us! Our DS's strengths are just different, that's all.

Don't worry. GT-denial goes away in three, or four years, or... well I'll let you know when I'm over my case... :-)
