Thank you very much for testing my child and getting us the report so quickly. We know how busy you are and appreciate the rapid response. We are grateful for your time. It has made a difference in my child’s schooling, and I can’t thank you enough! Yea, Wise Family!

PS. I have even used the triangle breathing technique I read about on your office door recently. You make a difference in all kinds of large and small ways.
