As some of you may know, my son, Brock, was diagnosed with autism when he was just 22 months old.  Every day he struggles to accomplish the smallest, most basic tasks.  As a parent who watches my precious son work so hard every day, I am doing all I can to raise money for other families that face similar challenges. Currently, one in 150 children are being diagnosed with autism so the need is overwhelming.

This coming Saturday is the Walk Now for Autism event in Kansas City.  We have a team called “Walk for Brock”.  Please consider making a donation to this amazing organization.  If everyone would donate just $1, it would make a substantial difference.

Thank you in advance for your consideration!

Is anybody else out there absolutely EXHAUSTED?  What a week.  What a show.  I rolled into my driveway at 3:30pm on Monday after traveling for about 24 hours.  I promply hugged my kids, petted my dogs, fed my horses and then fell asleep on the couch.  I went to bed at 9pm, got up in the AM to put my kids on the bus and then fell back to sleep on the couch until 10am.   Today I went to see my Miss Scarlet at the boarding stable, bought a rabbit cage and then was too tired to go to the grocery store to refill my fridge (good thing my kids like PB&J!!).

The Grand Nationals, once again, was a show to remember.  In the relatively few years I have been attending I think there were more Park Horses hitting the ring for the Championships than I have ever seen.  Not all the classes were big but over all I think there was great representation for all the divisions.
