[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just here to say you sound like such a good and loving mom. [/quote]

Thank you. You are kind. I've found parenting to be surprisingly challenging, but she knows she is loved, and she's a grounded kid. She's learned to get herself organized, and she's genuinely fun to spend time with. She's not an academic superstar, but she's got a level head and a good heart. Sometimes I feel kind of bad for having decided to live here because I think it's hard for "typical" kids. She can be pretty hard on herself, and doesn't see herself as particularly gifted in anything. But as I said in my first post, she will do just fine in life. I just hope she finds somewhere she can thrive and grow, where she will be appreciated for who she is. She has a lot of talents, but they don't immediately translate to things that get applauded by society. But she knows how to fit into a crowd, she can read people, she has a great eye for fashion, and she's reliable and conscientious. She just needs to figure out how that best translates into a career.[/quote]
