[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 479712, member: 6705"] Spelling is one of those things that Jett and husband both have issues with. In fact, I'm surprised that Jett [I]has[/I] vocabulary lists. Or, well, I was surprised until I found out they are given the word itself and must know the definition. Whether they can spell it or not is a non-issue. I know this is partially dyslexia. For instance, when Jett wants Kraft Singles, he will write on the list "chesee". Right letters, wrong order. Onyxx used to write "sause" instead of "sauce" - I laughed (to myself) when she wrote "worcestershire sause" on the list and explained she looked at the bottle for "worcestershire". Back in grade school, spelling tests were a nightmare for Jett no matter how much we practiced, because he [I]did[/I] have all the right letters. Punctuation is something that drives me nuts - especially on billboards or professional publications. "You're home's value..." (ORLY?) Jett hasn't mastered this, but he makes the effort. [/QUOTE]
