Journey through Life

After receiving my daughter back now since February 2012, it has been a journey of re-training, nurturing and counseling. My daughter has been traumatized and suffering from reading deficiency. Her reading level is lower than the children her age. I have confidence in her that she will advance her reading skills. She wants to be a broadway star. I remember when I was her age, I wanted to be a corporate attorney. I changed that ambition when I got into high school. I wanted to be an electrical engineer, then after taking Pre-Cal in high school (seeing that one problem takes up the whole paper), I had to think twice. I decided to join the U.S. Navy because I enjoyed serving in NJROTC for four years while my instructors were retired from the US Navy and I wanted to do the same.
