Braille Tales
"If I invest in the label, I can lower the bars for
expectations. If I invest in the whole being, I can
raise our goals and dreams, then anything is
possible."

UPDATE
January 2010, I'm returning to my home state of Texas for a visit. Less
then two weeks here we made the headlines of the local paper for a
Special Valentine's Day Story at the West Library, here in West, Texas.
According to others we drew more of a crowd then did the famous old
guy, Santa! Little and simple things are big here in Texas. Braille pulls it
off again - here's the
West Library and the West News Article!

Psst! I'm going to be nine years old on April 28th, seems like yesterday I
was trailing these roads!
