i believe that everybody has a talent to do anything they want, but not all people recognize that gift from GOD. even though some people cannot read, they even try to read and understand what the paper says or books or newspapers or tvs. ill be back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely concur with what you stated. Your explanation was certainly the simplest to understand. I tell you, I usually get irked when folks discuss issues which they plainly do not know about. You managed to hit the nail right on the head and explained out everything without complication. Maybe, people can take a signal. Will likely be back again to get more. Thanks

I would so love to read that. My kids loved the story of Helen Keller.

I have cried many times while reading picture books to my daughter. It’s kind of embarrassing! But, there is true emotion in these stories. You know it’s a wonderful book if you cry.

Thanks for sharing such a great book. you are not alone in your tears. I often get chocked up reading aloud. When we were reading The Little House on the Prairie Books, there were many times, I just lost it. The whole family just sobbed when their dog Jack died. Some stories just prick your heart.

Renae, I love that story as well. Last year, I cried many times reading "Where the Red Fern Grows" with my 6th grade class. This year, I cried reading a Vietnam Memorial children's book to my K-3 class. It's good and healthy for our little ones to see adults experience these emotions. Great post! .-= Jennifer in OR´s last blog ..I Am From =-.

Awwwww that is so touching. I didn’t know who Braille was, especially didn’t know it was a little boy who invented braille! That is really incredible. And yeah, I would probably be crying at something like that too. What a truly inspirational story, I like how you said it shows how much it shows one person can do for so many others! And have such a lasting effect. Thanks for sharing.

We love this book, too. My 6th grader is currently reading this in conjunction with our science unit studying the eyes. .-= Tara´s last blog ..Explorer's Bible Study =-.

I find myself crying about the silliest things when reading aloud to my children; whether it be from the scriptures or Laura Ingalls Wilder. Being a mom does crazy things to ya.
