Jen, you just described my two girls DD5 & DD4 personallities to a tee and in the same order. I do think there is something to the birth order thing. DD5 is driven, intense, very verbal while DD4 is what we call our flower child. She's the one that always surprises us. I know she's gifted too I just don't know how gifted because she hides it. I'm sure we'll find out when she's ready to let us know. smile

So much like us. DS6 is extremely intense, emotional, sensitive, desires praise...and constantly shows us what he can do. DS5 is fun loving, relaxed, agile, and he doesn't care what anyone thinks he can do. It's almost as if he refuses to show off...but he is independent and self-motivated and good at sports, too...maybe he is ND! teehee.

For me, GT means Georgia Tech.
