Thanks Carrie for the great idea!

I had e-mailed Carrie asking for ideas to modify some of the cursive writing in CTC due to my ds's physical limitations due to C.P. I was concerned that he wouldn't be able to write small enough to fit long verses in the boxes in the notebooking pages. She gave me the idea to measure a piece of paper that would be the same length as the box, but twice as wide and then once he did his copywork on it I could glue it in the notebooking pages and then fold it over like a folder. We did that today and it worked wonderfully. Instead of having a son who was reduced to tears because he couldn't make things fit, I had one that was proud of his accomplishment and thinks it is great that it fits in his notebook. I wanted to mention this because I know others had expressed concern about their dc's handwriting abilities and how to modify things for them.
