I know you had written about the "fixing" issue earlier, and that it was one of the dynamics behind your self-injury.<br /><br />Some of my favourite books when younger (some of the only horse books I read) were <i>The Saddle Club</i>.<br /><br />Glad you like <i>Autism in the Christian Home</i>. It was probably a bit of a commercial recommendation; there was homeschooling and heart in there. So I let it pass.Adelaide Duponthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01490123934889071074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102447705824989485.post-12060146139205509052010-09-29T22:26:37.584-04:002010-09-29T22:26:37.584-04:00I really hope you get the scholarship!

They are very soft.<br /><br />I think it will help me process more quickly, help socially, help balance and muscle development (I have some trunk weakness), and Mom says it will help me to be more confident (though I never knew I wasn't confident...). I really, really, REALLY hope it works out.<br /><br /><br />Amanda,<br /><br />Thanks for the crossings and please stay that way! Hehehe...Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08961164881093640787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102447705824989485.post-12297188651458250232010-09-29T13:58:14.369-04:002010-09-29T13:58:14.369-04:00You will LOVE it!!!
