That's awesome. Its something I've always wanted to do for my kids but with everything else dh keeps saying no. I can't wait to see the pics and I hope he has a great time.

"Had to post since no one is around to post today.....10 posts all day? Where is everyone?" I was running all over 3 different towns shopping with dd. She's been asking for a computer for yrs. Ds has his own. We alway tell her no because fankly she doesn't enjoy it too much. She always gets frustrated and starts crying when she uses mine. Well dh got an old lap top in at work that the screen was busted on but the rest of it worked fine. He took the screen off and hooked it up to a monitor. He told dd she could have it. He's a real softie when it comes to the kids and he really spoils them. Anyway she wanted it in her room like her brother of course. Her room is tiny. She only had a 2X2 ft space we could cram it into. So we were running all over trying to find a small table and stool for her computer. It needed to match her newly re-decorated room and be cheap. We never did find a table to match but we got a beautiful wood table at Hobby Lobby marked way way down. We did find a fuzzy pink storage cube that matched for her stool and its perfect for a sensory kid :)

That's great! I hope he enjoys it.

I always giggle when I see the word "hippotherapy". No matter how often I see the word, it always conjures up an image of a hippopotomus lying on a couch, talking to a Freud-like guy holding a clipboard.

BTW, did you know that the hippopotomus' closest living relative is...get this...the whale? LIttle bit of trivia, there. I wonder if swimming with dolphins would also be considered a type of "hippotherapy".

We have been doing it for years and it is wonderful. Cait has been riding for 6 years now and Mike rode for 2 in the beginning. He wasn't as into it and had this awful bug thing going on. I would love to get him on again but I can't afford 2 of them and I want him to do the music for now.

Anyway, I can't speak highly enough of it. Cait started volunteering there this year as well. Debbie, shawna, and all those at REINS are just awesome. I am sure Issaac will love it just as much.
