Henry's conference (a serious post)

We had a terrific parent-teacher conference for Henry this week (George's went well, too, and Richard is apparently doing so well he doesn't even need one). Here is a piece he wrote about deforestation after being shown an aerial image of the rainforest in 1975 vs. 2012. We were blown away by how sophisticated his writing is at age 8--he will surely rule the world one day (if one of his brothers doesn't get there first!).
