My Daughter Wrote this Autobiography Paper for school.

My Daughter Wrote this Autobiography Paper for school. It touched my heart so I wanted to share it with you.

This is a challenge that i struggled to over come, and a few things I am about to tell you I have done to over come it. But I wasn't alone in this challenge, my Mom always stood by my side helping me through this task.

When I was six years old, I was in a terrible car accident. While I was in the hospital, I missed out on a lot of things in school mainly reading and I had to work to catch up. So for the past eighteen years, I have struggled everyday with trying to learn how to read. For instance the word DOES It'd mix up the E and S. Even though I had that problem everyday, I would read and write different things to improve at reading and writing, and everyday I would get better, but I would still be behind the rest of my classmates. So even though I thought I was doing good, reading with the class was still hard and it showed when the test scores came back. That would always get me down in the dumps. I felt slower then the rest of the students, I felt well, just plain dumb. Even if all that maybe true, I still didn't stop reading. Over time, I read Edgar Allen Poe, my Mom would read it to me and then I would want to read some. I may not have understood every thing that was going on in the book, but my Mom would explain it to me. The reading was difficult but I still kept at it and the more I read the faster I got. Then, the words became clearer and when I read in front of the class, it was like the chip I had on my shoulder finally left. It was a great feeling because I didn't stumble, and I didn't try to mumble the words just to get by to the next one. Over coming this challenge has made me a better person today because it lets me know that I wasn't dumb. And if I work hard enough I can go through any obstacle.

Stupidity is a talent for misconception....Edger Allen Poe.
