Hobbies or Special Talents:
olidays big and small are one of my favorite things. My daughter with autism, Skylynn, get so incredible excited about each holiday -- the songs, the characters, the traditions, etc. It is just so much fun to watch my girls faces light up at each holiday event and party.
I recently decided to learn how to play the guitar because I needed something to say when someone asked me what I did for a hobby. I actually really enjoy playing. My daughters love to get involved when I play and I'm learning how to try and still pluck away at a song as random notes are added through the contributions of additional little hands on the strings.
