As a part of their summer break from school, I have required the kids to stop whatever they are involved with to spend one hour of reading time each day. Most of my kids enjoy this quiet time and actually enjoy reading to themselves.

But not Isaiah.

Today I found him like this…reading upside down, wiggling his legs on a chair. He remained in this position for the entire hour.

If reading was an aerobic workout, he’d be all for it, and so he’s negotiated with his body to make it tolerable for him. It is fascinating to witness the compromise.
