Little Bits

Hey all, I recently started volunteering at a place called Little Bits, they do Hippotherapy* with people of all ages. It really is amazing to see little children grin when you walk in the room because they have autism. I personally think that people with autism really care about people and they are so amazing. When my friend and I were waiting in the volunteer room, one man, he was in about his late 20's, had autism and it was so cool because you would give him your date of birth (in my case July 24th, 1994) and he would look at the table for about two seconds and then tell you what day of the week you were born! And he was right EVERY SINGLE TIME! It was amazing! I couldn't have figured that out to save my life! Right now I am working in the barn because I am not old enough to lead or sidewalk, which stinks but I mean at least its something.

Yeah, so know I know what day I was born. It stinks, really, 'cause my mom remembers when/how EVERYTHING happened to all of her kids when they were born/little, EXCEPT me. :( Its too bad that it ends in June, so neither of us will be old enough to lead before its over.
