SHOW NOTES“At the end of (Kaylin’s) fourth grade, I knew I needed to do some research. Something wasn’t right. I did not understand what it was, but we had to do something…and as a mom I was distraught. So I did a really big prayer, and then did some online research and it took me to this place…and they gave us some answers. And it was like walking through a really dark valley, and all of a sudden this bright light was shone onto the situation.” –Cory“20 percent of the population thinks in pictures.” –Cory“They actually gave me tools to learn how I learn.” –Kaylin“The diagnosis was helpful because they gave me tools so that I could learn in the education system that I have been given. And that was, I think, a big relief because I didn’t necessarily just have to sit there and struggle and deal with a lot of the emotions of not being enough.” –Kaylin“We had a really good administrator at the school…and I was expressing some of my initial frustration as a mom, and he just said…God has already given her everything she needs to be the best ‘her’…that just profoundly stayed with me, and it was with that I really did step into that advocacy role.” –Cory“We had alleviated some of the stress, put in all these accommodations, and then she learned how to use her tools.” –Cory“I think it’s really starting to catch on- the different ways that kids learn and letting all the different options be out there.” –Kaylin “There’s so much pressure in our society and especially as moms to be good at everything and to be everything, and we aren’t called to be everything.” –Christy“What I’m good at in my home is gonna be different than what another mom is good at in her home.” –Kaylin“You need to let things take their time…you need to have a growth mindset. Learning is a growing process.” –Cory
