The Nicest Mom in the World

Marcel: Mom, thanks for being the nicest mom in the world!
Me: Oh, Marcel your so sweet!
As I'm getting ready to say "I don't know abou the WHOLE world though", he beats me with-
"Well... maybe not the whole world. Maybe like the United states or at least Tiger Mountain!"
Hey! A whole mountain is still good for me!

HIPPO Therapy

Braden signing 'horse."


A perfect fit!


Today was Braden's first day of HIPPO theraoy at Camp Beracha. Don't know if I spelled that right. Anyway, Braden did really well. He wasn't allowed to ride on the horses today because there was some miscommunication and I was told yesterday that he needed to be evaluated by a specific therapist before he could be formally treated. He was allowed to visit though and play a few games.



He tried on helmets to find the one that will fit him, met his horse, who's name is Blitzen, and gave him a couple carrots. They're don't let kids hand feed them but he put them in Blitzen's food bucket and watched. He also gave him a pat.



He seemed to like being there and I think next week he'll like going for a ride.
