Do you have a lefty at home? My oldest daughter is a lefty and my older sister is a lefty. They really think they are something special because of it. Ha! I just play along because I love them.

If you have a lefty at home, these 5 tips to help your left-handed child with handwriting will help you.

That really saddens me.
Check out these 5 tips to help your left-handed child with handwriting from Intoxicated on Life.
