Happy Mother's Day to all of the mothers teaching classes, in our classes, or just sending their kids off to school every day. If you're a dog mom and not a human mom, that deserves thanks too. Are you a teacher with no kids? Guess what, you're a mom too. Your kids see you that way. At least some of them do. I appreciate all of you and those of you who are moms and teachers, you get double appreciation today.
I want to give special thanks to my mom who made such an impact in my life and education. Other than giving me life, the next most important thing my mom did was read to me. When I was young, she read me stories and that thelped me become a better reader. It helped me have a strong vocabulary. She worked full time and still found a way to feed me and read to me most days of the week. It didn't end when I grew up either. When I was sick in middle school, my mom sat and read my nightly reading to me one night while she nursed me back to health so I'd be ready for a quiz. That's the kind of woman she is and I'll always appreciate her for that.
She's a DISD grad by the way. Our district produces some quality people and has been for decades.
