[blindkid] Why you should go to the NFB national convention (byLindsay, age 7)

[Brandy W]

I love writer's workshop!!! It is hard to believe the little sweet girl who 
was not happy to be at state convention and din't want to stay with me in 
child care to do fun things is now writing quite a wonderful journal entry 
on why she can't wait for national convention. This is awesome!!! Hugs to 
all! Bran
