The humor of Dyslexia...

Sometimes I think the best tool when dealing with dyslexia has got to be a good sense of humor.  Being the only non-dyslexic person in a home with four other dyslexic people can drive you crazy sometimes.  For example, there is the continual question of  "mom how do you spell......."  .  I can't begin to tell you the number of times a day that I have to respond to this question.  So the other day Anna asked me "mom, how do you spell sprained?" to which I responded very slowly " s........p.....r....a.....i.....,ok, s.......p..........r.........a.......i.........n........e.......d.".  A few hours later I get on facebook and there is Anna's status  "Phillip spained his ankle today."   Out there for the whole world to see.  Sometimes you have to laugh to keep from crying.
