Sorry



Sam and I are so sorry we have not been blogging but we needed a break.  We kind of burned out at the end of the School year.  It had been five long years of ups and downs and Sam asked for a rest.  I always said when Samantha wanted to stop we would.  Sam and I have met an incredible man named Harvey Hubbel.  he is making a movie on dyslexia that everyone should see..  It hits all the points and describe what are childrengo through with the school system to a T.  please take a minute to watch the teaser and visit Harvey's page

NJ TASK FORCE



I was just informed that as soon as the NJ Budget is passed which must pass by June 30th 2010 the NJ Disability Task Force will form sometime in July.  Once formed we will have 12 monthe to research and submit our recommendations.  I will keep everyone updated.

Dyslexia t-shirts


I'd like to thank Jodi for helping Sammie and I find a resonable printer for our t-shirts.  I will post a picture of what Sam and I have designed.  It is very basic.  We choose purple because this is Sammies favorite color and I felt it could be worn by both children and adults.

The front is ......Stand Up 
                                For 
                             Dyslexia

The Back is....... Sammiesmission .com ...This is done with white lettering

They can only be ordered in batched of 50.. The cost is either $7.50 or $8.00 plus shipping.

Please let me know if anyone is interested in ordering one.  I'm only charging what I pay  for them  plus shipping to your home we just need to get the word out there. Samm has been wearing hers and some of the children in our neighborhood has asked for them as well.
