I saw this pin and was pleased that I was not the only child who thought this.
I remember being a kid and trying to spell Disney 'Gisnep." When I got older, I thought it was spelled 'Gisney.'
Once my mom tried to correct me and say that Disney started with a 'D.' I told her that she was wrong. I was so sure of it. I thought it was one of those special cases where phonics doesn't make sense like how 'knock' starts with a 'k.'
But, I was wrong. I was old enough to know better when I finally discovered that Disney was spelled with a 'D.'
I felt like I had been lied to my entire life.
It's still a sore subject.
