For some reason, when I started blogging, I decided to try two different blog hosters. I like both hosts, but decided it would help to have them all in on place, so here is the new link to this blog:

more than pi . . .
These are our everyday adventures in raising gifted children and all of the idiosyncrasies, sensitivities, behavioral concerns, joys and challenges that come along with giftedness. We are a family of 5, including 3 gifted children. Our oldest son, Osmo is 11 and is identified as "highly gifted," and excels in many areas including math, science and music. Our daughter, Zara, 8, is intuitively and artistically gifted. Our youngest son, Pip, is 3, and his talents are just starting to make themselves apparent. He is incredibly verbal and intuitive as well as being very physically active. Between the three children, we are seeing not only a very wide array of talents and abilities, but we also seem to run the gamut of sensitivities, behaviors and emotional makeup.
I am in no way an expert, and have no credentials other than the fact that I am submerged in the raising of 3 amazing children. I want to share our daily adventures in giftedness - the successes, the failures and the downright disasters.

a word about the ads
I have chosen to allow ads to be placed on this blog. Not because I am hoping to capitalize on the talents and abilities of my children, but because raising children is expensive. Raising gifted children, particularly so. After school Chinese and Advanced Math classes that we've looked into cost over $500 for a 6-week class. Chess lessons, piano lessons, college math text books, camps and sports are all incredibly expensive. If I can raise a little money on this blog, then I can say 'yes' to more classes, books, games, etc. If you want to contribute to the education of these incredible kids, then simply click on one of the ads. If not, don't worry about it - just ignore the ads and enjoy the stories.
