Though My Parents Assured Me Over And

From The Time I Started School, It Was Clear To Everyone That I Wasn't Learning At The Same Pace As Other Kids.

Though My Parents Assured Me Over And Over Again That I Wasn't Stupid Or Slow, I Sensed That My Dyslexia Was Now A Stigma On All Of Us.

I Am A Daughter, A Sister, A Wife And A Mother. I Am A Friend Of Women And I Am Their Advocate.

I Think That We Can't Deny The Public's Want For Balancing Out The Images That Are Out There Depicting Women. Not All Of Us Are 17 And A Size Two.

I Bicycle 12,000-foot Mountain Passes, Run, Cross Train, Skate-ski, Hike And Mountain Bike.
