It is good to see her enjoying work and school. You and I know how your wife is and her expectations.It is just her nature. But.....through my conversations with her, I do tell her that let the kids have some "space" Honestly just guide or nudge them but in the right direction. They will be fine, the worrying part does not and will not help. Kudos to Caitlin on her colouring. It is good to see her enjoying work and school.

She sometimes seem to <i>confuse </i>writing and colouring; when she is supposed to write, she'd scribble back and forth like colouring... I use "confuse" loosely because she does know the difference between writing and colouring... yet... Anyway, agree with Moomykin on the different upbringing. Hot Mummee is quite the go-getter, so I am wary that she will have very high expectations of her kids... she already does!

Btw, Mums and Dads always have very different ideas when it comes to the "how to" in raising and grooming of our kids. It all has to do with our own upbringing and expectations. :) <em>Moomykin's last blog post..<a href='http://moomykin.blogspot.com/2008/05/yes-we-have-fish.html' rel="nofollow">Yes, We have Fish</a></em> Nice coloring, Caitlin!
