For C and her diamond castle

I've been a volunteer at  center for kids for more than 2 years now  and everyday that I am with the kids is like having a dose of all the goodness in the world. Every little moments that we share seems like a gift that you can never put a price-tag on. 

Currently, we are preparing for our annual christmas play--the Nativity. We were always told that we should never play favorites but i can't help it if i love one among them. She loves playing tag -- she screams and runs around the center if i come for her for therapy. She is smart --- she'll come up with different excuses just so she can get what she wants. She loves chocolate ice cream (like who doesn't?), sesame street and Barbie. She loves read-aloud and singing. She is highly hyperactive and manipulative. 

She is diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. 

But even with that, i can't help but be amazed when she sings her favorite songs....

this is one of her favorites




For C , i know you wont be able to read this yet (since your still 5 and can't use the internet). . .but i am very much thankful for being part of your life. For teaching me great things only special kids knows how. I am blessed to have met you. Happy 5th Birthday!! Surely you're going to find your own diamond castle.


someday soon.
