Enter the paper plate people. One day, Lacy decided to draw faces on a bunch of paper plates. Then it was time for summer school. She decided to have the paper plate people read all her lessons for her. And do you know what? She actually learned! She read! I didn't get frustrated with her! She didn't get frustrated trying to read! It was a miracle! So now, every time we do school, the paper plate people come out and read for Lacy.
But today, Lacy admitted something to me. "Mom, it's not really the paper plate people who are reading. It's me. I just make different voices and pretend that it is the paper plate people who are reading." Well, what a revelation, Lacy! I'm glad it's helping, even if it's not real.

I love it! You know, I believe in whatever it takes to get the job done. Well done Lacey!
OH! I'm so glad she figured out a way to get over her 'hurdle'! That's GREAT! Way to go Lacy! And, way to go MOM on not giving up on her, but not pushing too hard!
