For our daughter, illegible handwriting was one of "those things". I ranted. I raved. I made her do it again...and again. "Honey, handwriting is a form of communication. If I can't read it, you're not communicating!" It was a battle I never won. I took comfort in the fact that all of her assignments in college were done on a computer. And she could read her own notes. And finally...she was over 21, and if it hadn't taken by now; she would have to deal with it!
Until yesterday. Yesterday, at her internship (IT at a retail corporate office); she was complimented on her handwriting. Apparently, messy handwriting is a thing for computer geeks. Maybe it's a sign of intelligence. Or maybe...just maybe...I was wrong...
Feeling blessed! How about you?
