The Mother of a Dyslexic

I just sat down to the computer (first I had Emily show me how to sign back in to my blog) and was already to pour my heart out about all the misconceptions concerning dyslexia.  In comes Phillip with sad eyes wanting me to read to him.  While I am disappointed that I will not be able to unload all my thoughts and feelings at this time, I do not want to miss this golden opportunity to instill a love for reading in my son.  It has been my experience with Emily and Anna(both are dyslexic) that by reading to them and in front of them, I was able to inspire them to overcome the difficulty associated with dyslexia.  They both now love to read.  I am getting a late start with Phillip, but never the less I intend to wet his appetite for good literature so that he too will join the rest of his siblings in the love of literature and written words.  So the intended blog post will have to wait while Phillip and I read  "King George, What Was His Problem".
