It's only a couple of hours, but it least it gives me something to do (and a bit of spending money).
I hope to get to know my autistic 4-year-old client a bit better. She seemed to enjoy singing, so I'll try that again.
I'll probably do one song often (the ABC song and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, which have the same melody).
What are you up to on this sunny Tuesday?

@TheHorse Yeah was really a good game till that point. I am not a fan Cardinal fan but think its time for Dodgers to win one, they suffered enough. Speaking of which they play at three. We have to root for California if all our teams are out right? I think why they will lose because they do not want no more police drama and fans but mostly police. .

@crossbones27 I'm trying to remember. The Dodgers last won when they beat the A's in '88, right? An interesting (to me) factoid: Though I'm a Bay Area person, I found myself rooting for the Dodgers over the A's. That taught me that I'm a National Leagee fan at heart. I still watch/listen to Vin's call of Gibson's home run now and then. Did the Braves last win in the early '90s? I remember that their pitching was dominant during that era, but they won only one World Series in the '90s, if memory serves.

@TheHorse The crew is coming today to empty out the house. Then we need some drywalling done and some plumbing; and then we will sell the house.

I've noticed a lot of the autistic children I've worked with love music. Even more than most little kids.
Have a great day!

@TheHorse ITs been a few years since I have worked one on one with any Autistic kids, but one of the kids that our seven year old hangs out with is Autistic, but his parents refuse to do anything about it or really acknowledge it. It's not doing him any favors.
I worked with a non verbal six year old for almost a year, and nannied a little girl with autism from the time she was three till she was 8.

Don’t you get that 4-year-old to singing Iris DeMent’s part on “In Spite of Ourselves,” now.

I voted, and after lunch I’m off to look at the foliage.
