Math in your head is overrated (says someone who can't go beyond basic addition and subtraction in my head - but hey, I got a Ph.D. in English!)E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10023959769203103393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15513876.post-35123352732192925702007-04-23T23:18:00.000-05:002007-04-23T23:18:00.000-05:00I love when kids write and illustrate their own st...I love when kids write and illustrate their own stories.

I can only hope one day to be able to write a similar thing about my own girls. <BR/><BR/>May her imagination take her everywhere.Mom101https://www.blogger.com/profile/15468524489744839899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15513876.post-49240400728631351812007-04-18T08:14:00.000-05:002007-04-18T08:14:00.000-05:00That's awesome!

I just had to this time. Who cares about winning sporting events or doing math in your head? You've given your daughter an amazing gift...a place where she can dream and grow.

Power to The Classics Nerds!<BR/><BR/>Great job w/ Em.
