Dad takes our RV on the big city freeway. I sing my favorite song. I have autism and I like to sing better than I like to talk. “Gonna ride ’til I can’t no more..” Mom works on her podcast. Brandon counts cars and trucks and keeps track of their colors. He has autism too. Counting is something he likes to do.
