I used to dread each PT conference with my oldest because he was so "busy" and they all told me that he "marches to the beat of a different drum." Now he is a brilliant, calm and mature 5th grader, a real leader. I did have him do a bridge year to give him more time to mature (summer b-day and all).<BR/><BR/>Gertie sounds simply delightful and just so you know most CEO's of the fortune 500 were c students at state universities. She doesn't need Harvard! Sounds like she is a genius in emotional intelligence which is even more important.<BR/><BR/>Okay a few more things...thank you for your comment on my blog. YOu are so right...Harry's teacher is breaking his beautiful and joyful spirit and it is killing me. He was the BEST student. his teachers have always said hat Harry set the tone for the classes. They loved him. So this is very sad.<BR/><BR/>I love the name Emerson.

It most certainly isn't academic but they are kind to others, help those that struggle, and are very polite. They are keepers!The 5 Bickieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02639553561832948962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-594458802878675328.post-71416936738993464532008-10-22T19:08:00.000-07:002008-10-22T19:08:00.000-07:00I do love my Emme Lou! what a sweet story.
