Lol, so much of what you say is so familiar. I still get a bit freaked out by Gross's book because she's so breathless about things which are normal round here :-) [although some of what the kids in that book do takes my breath still, I'm glad to say] and I still remember being shocked the first time DS (then 2, but closer to 3 than your DD!) read a whole book which I knew he'd never seen, and wondering how long he'd been able to do that, and realising that my earlier assumption that he'd been "reading" by memorising might have been off the mark... Yeah, it is scary. But it's OK, it's fun, they're still our lovely little kids, you'll be fine :-)
