From 7 years old with developmental delays, to 15 years old with developmental delays, I adore their personalities and learning how they function in their life. I have been watching children with disorders from mild adhd up to kabuki syndrome for 2+ years now and I LOVE every second of it!
I have enjoyed cleaning ever since I was very young. When I was 13 I started cleaning houses to make money, and I've been doing it as a small side job ever since! It gives me a chance to plug in my ear buds and get away for a few hours, while pleasing other people with my cleaning abilities!
