Reflection Mode:

Lace up those Gloves

I bought this key chain for a student who I worked with for reading.
It inspired me to do some writing.

You are a fighter buddy.
You can do this.
You might have struggled and hid as a reader
for years and years.
But I see you.
You got this.
Let me help you.
Put down your gloves for a moment to
listen.

Open your heart.
Listen to the words.
Let them surround your brain.
Let your brain swallow them.

Then…

Jab that word.
Hook that thought.
Uppercut that doubt.
Then jab, hook, jab, hook.
Speak.

Yes! That makes so much sense.

Your gloves are laced.
You are ready to fight.
