Back then I was so busy with various therapies for both sons that I have no recollection of when I first noticed the lefthandedness. Probably his OT was the one who told me!

I'm one of the few lefties I've ever met that doesn't write upside-down. I turn the page nearly 45degrees to the right instead. I had the OT check b/c I wondered if they were just mirroring us but it appears they are both righties. S. In our house parents are lefties, kids are right.

As you were throwing that ball at them, they were off building whole new planets! No wonder they found your piddling efforts bemusing. For the record: in our family of four, three of us are lefties. My husband is the minority right-hander. Oh, yes. As you were throwing that ball at them, they were off building whole new planets! No wonder they found your piddling efforts bemusing.

Quite a surprise I must say. Both grandfathers are lefties though. Oh, how many times I've seen the "what is your point exactly" look. Also, I left Patrick's first and only forray into graffiti firmly on his wall. I still tear up when I look at those little stick people with huge faces drawn in red crayon.
