every now and then i find myself doing something similar. i learned to read when i was 3, and every so often i catch myself worrying if we shouldn't be doing more because kelsey's at about 4.5 and isn't. when that nasty little worry cuts through my brain, i just have to remind myself that i can't measure her with my own life's yardstick. she's her own person, and she's much better than i ever was -at even later ages- in many other regards.
like kelsey, peanut's already forming into such a wonderful, unique little person. i've seen it whenever i've seen her, and the same goes for sam. don't let someone else worry you into questioning your parenting skills. i don't see anything broke, so why fix?
besides...only the *weird* kids don't watch spongebob...! ;P
