I hope that my son will someday also meet your children - all the other children whose parents allowed them to march up and down a hill singing their math problems and answers; all the others who were allowed to practice Spanish while swinging upside down on a trapeze; All the others who got to live in their pirate costumes for days at a a time while reading all the pirate books they could get their hands on; all the others who got to wear their T-shirts backwards so they could chew the tags; all the others who first thing in the morning will argue about whether Saladin's civilization was the first to have Islam because technically, Saladin's civ was the Arabic Empire; all the others who give you a lesson about the Vichy French in World War II that you had quite forgotten and weren't quite expecting to get to yet in the Story of the World; any others who got to spend the whole day singing _everything_, a lá opera.

you get the idea... I know you do. :)

Thank you for sharing these very nice sentiments! Indeed, I hope someday to meet some other children who have sung entire arguments with their siblings while sitting in the back seat of the car. If only I could have had a video camera to capture the moment....

You think it is interesting now....just wait for the teen years!

Or who memorize Latin vocab by drawing pictures...(just one small eg to add to the pot; I won't go into all of it!)
