So, are you liking the "Handwriting without Tears" book? I am envisioning some tears with my son next year when he officially. I am kinda worried! :)

I like the Handwriting without tears in some ways and in some ways I really don't. I started Nathan with the prek book and it did capital letters. Now with the kindergarten book, which teaches lower case letters, he prefers writing in capital letters and really struggles with the lower case. If I had it to do over, and I will with the twins, I'd start with the kindergarten book and then do the prek book.
