I agree with so much of what you said. I have a seven year old who loves to read and write and I think it's partly because my husband and I do many of the things you spoke of in the article. I felt really affirmed after reading the article. Hooray!! Seeing your article on teaching children to write was refreshing. I agree with so much of what you said.
