I'm not surprised to learn that gifted kids - and Jonah is crazy gifted, you do know that - require less sleep. Although I bet he'll make up the debt come age thirteen. It's going to be fascinating to observe his development over time. He's a unique kid. College by age twelve? Skipping grades? I think it's great that you guys are checking out gifted sites now to learn about how to make such decisions. It' s a happy task that lies ahead. <em>Laura H.'s last blog post..<a href='http://ilpiccolino.blogspot.com/2009/05/through-seasons.html' rel="nofollow">Through the seasons</a></em>]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fascinating!

I know you have a mother's helper and you talk a lot about all of the outings and cool things you guys do together (which is great). But do you make him entertain himself throughout the day, too? Is there any possibility that part of his sleep problems are related to always having someone do something with him? Honestly, at 15 months, we still don't even try to make Eli go to sleep by himself. Of course, he usually falls asleep pretty quickly by snuggling with us, so we just haven't messed with success. Good luck! <em>Katie's last blog post..<a href='http://mixednutsblog.wordpress.com/2009/06/05/i-dont-remember-my-parents-going-through-stuff-like-this/' rel="nofollow">I Don’t Remember My Parents Going Through Stuff Like This</a></em>]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just a thought–How much time does Jonah spend entertaining himself during the day?
