    DS#2 used to go on and on at that age, and has always quizzed me and made up games etc etc. He also has always had that level of drive - the school finally bought the Torrance Test for Creative Thinking and he was 97th %ile overall. He does not need to qualify with IQ or achievement to qualify gifted in creativity. He is 2E and cross dominant - right hand, left eye.

    Funny Stuff, right?
    Hey Grin - i wish i could show you the paper DS wrote in free time at school last week - he wrote down the names of all of his favorite "artists" (you know, like Gaga and Katy) along with titles and albums - it is hilarious.

    Any kind of writing at all at this age is drool worthy!
    Did you know that Lady Gaga when to CTY summer camp (it's a sleepover camp for gifted kids that you have to take the SAT in Middle School to qualify for!) She is one of us - no wonder she dresses like an alien!

    Lol! Would love to see it. I'm actually going to get DS to practice writing with this idea!

    Make a photobucket account at photobucket.com. Upload you picture there. Once you have your picture there it's become stored online. Click the circled i at the bottom of your picture. There'll be several choices. One will be img. Copy & paste the stuff from the img box and post it here. It will be a direct link just to the picture you want to show us. The link will make the picture pop up in a new window.
