Hi Everybody!
I am so glad a list like this has started.I have alot of questions about my daughter who I think is very gifted. She has never been "tested". Is there a test or something I can do to find out if she really is gifted?
I have 4 kiddos....Thomas 12, Dana 7, Sarah 4, Daniel 2. The one I am thinking is gifted is Dana. There are things that she does that blows me away. She seems more responsible than my 12 year old son. She knows everything....and where everything is. She sits down and writes out calculations that she does on a calculater. Her reading ability is not very good, but she is interested. She does better in her math studies than anything else. There is alot more not mentioned because I don't want this to be too long.
Of course, I think that all children have their own special gifts, but some seem to excel in certain areas that adults take notice.
About myself, I am a stay at home mom and I love to crochet blankets. I am crazy about kitty cats. I am discovering that I can learn beyond the bonderies of School. I love crock pot recipes! Please send me some!! :-)) I am a thrift store shopper and I go crazy over bargains. I love going garage saleing. I am married to a wonderful and understanding man who is working for NASA under a contractor.
I am looking forward to this egroup,
Blessings to all,
Libby
