Tonight we took Adam to tour a technical college, this is a difficult thing for all of us. For Me it's the sending my baby out into this big bad world, even though I've done it before it's still hard for me to think about it. For John it's his best buddy not being right here to stroll through the woods with, to talk about tires, rims and exhaust, to grump at each other in their father son way, it's his son making a step into not needing his dad. For Adam it's all the unknowns that will be happening. Right now Adam is doing great in school, all his teachers know his dyslexia issue and help him deal with that, next year he will have to start all over. His entire learning ability will be turned upside down or it may turn right side up, it just depends on how he sees it. The tour was interesting and it seems like a great place for Adam to start so we signed him up, now we'll have to wait and see if they accept him.
No picture today just a magazine clipping that has been hanging on our refrigerator for years, it was given to me by my sister Starla because she thought of Adam when she seen it.
The hmuan mnid is amzanig!
Rscheearch sohws taht it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod aeappr, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm.
Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid does not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amaznig, huh?
Now just think, what does Adam see when he looks at words? Let me tell you from being his mom for 18 years.... the notes he leaves us on the counter are a lot of work to figure out, but we get it after awhile. He will be fine, he's made it this far and I don't thinks it been all on his looks and personality. :)
