Leaders to Legends

KNOWLEDGE from a book and KNOWLEDGE from your experience are two entirely different things. KNOWLEDGE from experience is from your SOUL.

KNOWLEDGE FROM A BOOK: As a teacher, the colleges “told” me what I needed to do to teach a child to read and all of the professional development re-taught by retelling me how to teach “that” child how to read!

KNOWLEDGE FROM THE SOUL: As a mom, who taught two of my born children to read, a boy and a girl, I can definitely testify from experience that this is where you will see the greatest impact of the seed you plant and a real harvest in abundance.

One became a medical doctor, finishing med school and delivering babies as young as 32 years old. And the other read as early as two years old and owns their own business. There was no such things as hooked on phonics at the time.

The SOUL KNOWLEDGE

Phonics is good, but this is Godly…

1. They must see you practice what you preach: Read daily and talk about what knowledge was provided from the reading.

2. Read as often as possible: Your children must witness seeing you experience joy while reading. Seeing a finished product from seeing you read the directions aloud while putting together their bed or their new favorite toy.

3. Most influential: a regular discipline has to be reading to them in the safest, most comforting space in their life (home in mommas arms, daddy’s lap, aunty’s couch, uncles car, grandmas bed, etc)

4. Less telling and more doing. They have to see these disciplines to believe it.

This one is from my soul and you did not have to pay for a college degree to get it, it’s free to you!

The habit of sitting down, with your new, emerging reader, and reading a book with your child, as they look at the words is a game changer.

DADS…..

Dads are more than providers.
Dads are protectors, teachers, encouragers, role models, disciplinarians, coaches, listeners, leaders and much more!

A dad’s presence shapes how a child sees themselves, their family, and their future. Whether through a conversation, a correction, a hug, showing up to an event, or simply saying, “I believe in you,” dads have the power to leave a lasting LEGACY.

💙 Dads, your presence matters.
Your words matter.
Your example matters.
Your love matters.
YOU matter.

DADS Gathering has been going strong for well over four months now and they have planned their first event; simply providing an opportunity for a “Daddy Date” with your children.

An intentional choice to build strong families—one outing, one conversation, and one legacy at a time. Save the date, Dads and children of all ages welcome to join them next Monday evening for Popsicles in the Park with Pops.

Your gift will fill your bank account, but your calling will fill your soul.

I cannot make this stuff up…..

One of the Leaders to Legends parents who has been homeschooling her middle school child for 6 months, called me today and shared that she had her child tested by the same testers and test before she made the decision to homeschool.

*****6 months later

Her child has advanced 3 grade levels in reading and moved past the grade level they are in for math! High school ready!

I’m going to leave it to everyone else as to why this happened. An update will be provided if we dont hear from you all in the comments.

That phone call right there is the paycheck!!!
