Feels like winning the Lotto


If you only knew how excited I am to post this. Dustin has struggled with reading for years. We have done everything to help him...... vision therapy ($ 1600 worth plus two trips to Redding a week for 14 weeks), glasses, tutors, one on one, nothing seemed to get him where he needed to be... Last year, we found him books that interested him, Honus and Me, Jackie and Me... baseball greats.. he loved them but would read through them and not understand what he had just read... you can imagine my surprise when I looked out the back door to find this sight. He literally read 120 pages in a day, finished the entire book in a day and a half. AND REMEMBERED MOST OF WHAT IT WAS ABOUT!!!! a true victory for him.. I hope we can keep him interested and continuing to read....

It feels better than anything when our kids reach a goal or accomplish a task! So awesome. Congratulations to everyone.
