Welcome back!

As I sit in my dining room and type, I hear my husband and our friend cracking jokes and snickering in the background.

It helps me to think sometimes. Other times, I find myself listening to what they are saying and losing my concentration.The laughter that I hear is actually rather nice. I mean, that while I am on the internet, my husband is not alone without some sort of companionship.

Our friend lives around the corner so can visit almost any time. He has a good sense of humor (maybe not as unusual as my husbands, but good) and when the two of them get together, we don’t know what is going to be brought up.However, there is something else that they have in common, Dyslexia. It is something that can limit a person and cause them problems that can last a lifetime.

Diagnosing it can start the process to learning how to overcome it. Ignoring it or rejecting the idea of it can cause severe problems. My husband went to school when they didn’t know or understand Dyslexia in the manner that it is understood now. he was put in ’special education’ back when it wasn’t so special. He can read now. Not a lot, but enough to read his bible. We have God to thank about that, not man nor school. If you know someone who has a problem reading, DON’T assume that the person is stupid. That would be a grave injustice to the person involved.
