Local Revision: Tense Usage

In completing this blog post, I noticed that a majority of QRG is present tense. It does mainly switch from pat tense to present. I found that when I write about my big event (Henry and his struggle with school) I used past tense. When I wrote about the role of occupational therapists and the current situation, I used present tense. I used the future tense very little throughout my piece.
