[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 466997, member: 6705"] I draw on graph paper to relieve tension. I have 9 markers I color the designs with, and colors 1, 4, and 7 must touch, 2, 5, and 8, etc. Letters must be the same height or "size" - i.e., 13x13=12x14, and so on. I count the outlines as I draw... And hopefully the end result is NOT a prime number. If I make a mistake that I can't erase or cover with a darker color? I start over. Fortunately this isn't for a grade, but I get it. It has to MATCH. Drives me bonkers when it doesn't. And I'm (ahem) "normal". In order to get things to match, maybe a thesaurus would be in order; since he used chocolate, perhaps "simpatico gato"? Obviously, this will not matter in a future assignment, but occasionally re-wording is in order. ...And... For my high school Spanish class, I had to do an assignment selling something off the wall. I chose "conejitos de polvo". Dust bunnies. Your difficult child might get a giggle out of that... I'll have to facebook you a picture. [/QUOTE]
