A Big Treat For An Even Bigger Accomplishment!!!


4 months ago we were told Gideon could be Mildly Mentally Retarded. One month ago, we were told that Gideon may never read. Today, after a week of practice, a few tears, a promise of a big reward and a great deal of determination, Gideon read 9 out of 10 three letter words!!! Miss Cook had suggested that Gid shoot for 3 to 5, but he was able to read 9 words!!! This is huge for Gid and we are so proud of his determination and hard work!!!
