Dyslexia...




Well Nugg, that's what they say you have.  Dyslexia.  At first I cried.  A lot.  I was sad, and scared and angry.  I don't want you to struggle with anything like this. I want you to enjoy school, love reading and get great grades, a great job and have a successful career.  

I've not decided that even thought you "have" this... it doesn't define you.  This is simply a hurdle that you will face, and one that WE will learn to deal with.  

There are many things I dislike about living in Dallas... many... but I find it no coincidence that God has you at Grace Academy, we have found Mrs. Fortune to help you a few days a week AND we found Sandi Frost to administer your testing.  Those things are ALL a huge blessing.  I'm also thankful, VERY thankful that I followed my gut (at the prodding of Mrs. Galimore) and had you tested at such a young age.  It was 100% worth it.  Ya know why? Because now, I CAN HELP YOU.

So someday, if you read this... I want you to know that it scared me.  It made me feel like people might pick on you.  But then.... I heard all of the stories about how successful people that have this are.  They think outside of the box, they are entrepreneurs.. and then, right then, I realized... you have SO MUCH THAT GOD HAS BLESSED YOU WITH... you are going to knock this out of the park and be the 100% awesome man I know you can be!!

We've got this buddy, I love you!!!!  Mommy
