I am a visual thinker. It is hard for me to understand spoken language. I understand much better when you can show me what you are trying to tell me, and I can sometimes explain things to you if I have a way to show you. This is why I like my iPad so much. Its all pictures, and its very easy for me to use because its touch screen. They have some very neat apps made just for kids with autism like me. These app are helping me learn to recognize emotions, helping me practice interacting with other people, giving me new phrases to use, helping me develop fine motor skills, teaching me color, number and letter recognition and I have been able to show mommy and daddy lots of things that I have been knowing but have not been able to tell them about. Thank you so much to my friends and family that helped me get my iPad. Laura, Courtney (big Courtney), Janie and Katie, Samantha, Aunt Toot and uncle Shomp, Granny and Papa, Michelle and Angela. Your names are engraved on the back of my iPad so that I will remember every time that I see it that you helped me get it.
