 JND> Hi, It was nice to hear from you!
 JND> I have one child, a daughter, Erika. She is 11 years old and she's
 JND> also smart. Sometimes I find it hard to keep up with her. We study
 JND> using alot of diffrent materials. She excells in math and science and
 I find it hard just doing 3 kids all with different paces.  Although
 Jonathon likes listening to the younger kids cause he knows it and
 makes his self esteem higher.  
 JND> way to solve it.Do you ever let your kids correspond to other kids
 JND> like pen pals? My daughter might enjoy writing to your kids sometime
 JND> if that's o.k. with you! 
 They haven't express an opinion on that.  I mentioned it to them once, but
 never really got any answer from them.  I will mention it again and see
 if their is an interest.  Of course Jonathon has a hard time expressing
 himself on paper and Sara can write but being almost 9 her spelling is
 still outrageous.  Jeremy hates to write, he can't express himself with
 words at all.  Of course maybe a pen pal would excite them.
 Motivating them is still hard.  Jonathon pretty much does what ever he is
 told, Sara complains, and Jeremy being ADHD well that is a really big
 problem.
 Talk at ya later.
