(Fast forward to present day...)
Grace spent about 1 hour taking apart a cell phone this morning.It was spectacular. She was delicately removing the circuit boards, computer chips,micro switches, buttons and connectors! The highlight was the LCD screen and camera lens. "I think I may have just hit upon a new love", says Grace.
Plans are currently underway to head to Daddy's office this afternoon and take apart the old computer he has there.
Similarly, in another part of Far, Far away land, a little girl named Forte loved to doodle scientific processes... ( The human female reproductive system comes to mind...)
(Fast forward to present day...)
This is a drawing that Grace did the other evening in response to me having a hushed discussion with Carl about her not retaining the lesson information from that day on Epigenetics. The double helix has base pairs lined up correctly, histones and an example of methyl groups attaching to regions of genes which are being turned on and off depending. I recanted immediately after seeing this;)

wow! I am impressed.
Isn't it neat when you can see yourself in your child?
I can't believe what I see. Your front room looks like Carl's old bedroom as far as the mess goes. Never underestimate your little one. They understand alot more than we give them credit for sometimes. She is so much like the two of you it is amazing.
Really cool.
Really cool!
It is so wonderful for Grace how involved her dad is in her education. She is a lucky girl.
Mariposa,
I totally agree:) It is, IMHO, VERY important for gifted girls to have involved Fathers. :) Of course, "MR. Mariposa" (I don't know what you call him on the blog! LOL) is involved with Ami, and it is really cool what he does with her;)
