They pick up an amazing amount without having to drill...Missus Wookiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11110080333983480503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789095549483601237.post-91451116857793143992009-09-30T22:38:13.405-05:002009-09-30T22:38:13.405-05:00I LLLLOOOVVVEEEE Hard Times in Paradise.

My middle son, I joke, learned to read by following subtitles when we watched movies. &#39;Cause I sure never taught him how, and around 7 he was barely able to read. Now, at almost 9, he&#39;s reading way above grade level, with no &quot;lessons&quot; from me. Amazing. <br /><br />My 4 yr old, same thing. He refuses to count numbers in order. But he can look at the table and tell you if 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 of us are sitting there. In one glance. <br /><br />Crazy amazing what they &quot;pick up&quot; when left a bit to their own devices, isn&#39;t it?TexasHeatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16267371981505419362noreply@blogger.com
