“Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” When dyslexics find their unique abilities, they become unstoppable & can even swim upstream! More on this on my blog: virg.in/3Fgn

A very sad goodbye to our delightful dog Miso, but also a celebration of his wonderful life, always chasing kites and spreading joy. A huge thank you to all who cared for him over the years.
