I am trying to teach her how to write her letters but she hasn't grasped the concept quite yet. She likes to make lots of H's but no A's, B's or C's so far. None the less, I try to spend a few minutes doing something constructive with her every day. It has to be fun for her and of course a 4 year old has a very short span of attention. I have learned to be patient.

One major goal of a parent is to help your child be the best they can be, be the "smartest" they can be, to the best of their ability, whatever that may be.
I now can really relate to my parents, how they must have felt about me whenever I did well, probably the same feeling I have for my kids when they do well. What a terrific feeling.
