Hi Stacy –

Totally agree!

Reading and writing are so very important. For a couple reasons that pop in my head immediately: communicating + entertainment.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi Marty —

Applause for being a teacher of reading to lots of adults and children!

I hadn’t really thought how Helen Keller’s quote tied together with Jerry Clower’s story. That being Ann Sullivan the beautiful, loving teacher.

I’m so glad that you pointed that out and reminded me of Ann Sullivan.

We appreciate your time and love and share.

HAPPY DAY

Hi Carol –

Ha! I, too, flunked the quiz.

Agree about the Jerry Clower story being so relevant today as it was then. Wild.

High five to the zucchini stuffed potatoes on your weekend menu. They are really good.

Thank you, Daymaker, for your time and love to share your warm, well written thoughts. That makes our day!

Spot on about jerry and how it applies today w kids. So many kids can’t read past 4th grade and they just pass them thru schools no longer care about reading writing and math they care about indoctrination and the current thing. We are doing our kids such a disservice in public schools and more parents need to be involved. Hats off for putting the Jerry Clower article in.

Jerry Clower’s take on children not reading caught my mind. I’ve taught lots of adults and children to read and they ALL read!

Why? Because I believe that anybody can be taught to read or God wouldn’t have left the Bible to read.

My students, young and old, picked up on my enthusiasm and guess what? They all read.

Now move that to Helen Keller in today’s Daymaker. Nobody believed Helen Keller could do anything because she couldn’t speak and she couldn’t see and she couldn’t hear. Along comes Ann Sullivan who believed she could. And Helen Keller did. Helen Keller left a legacy that no one can touch!

Thank you Ann Sullivan. Onward!

I totally flunked the pop quiz. But I’m so much smarter now!

Loved Jerry Clower. I was surprised that it was written in 1992 – it’s oh-so-relevant today.

And those zucchini and gruyere stuffed potatoes will be on the menu this weekend for sure.

Thanks DayMaker!!!
