I got some clarification from Carrie today about the carousel. It seems I misunderstood Make-A-Wish’s search for the carousel. They did get Lauren a brand new one. The delay and approval process was regarding placing it at the school, and insurance concerns. As soon as that was completed satisfactorily, they delivered this adorable merry-go-round. Carrie said it has sure gotten a workout since it was installed. The kids are all very excited.
It’s in one of the activity rooms where they do therapy, and it has already become a great incentive. The kids know if they do their work (therapy), they get rewarded with a ride on the carousel. I took a little video of the kids riding on it. I’m going to try to post it. The calliope music is really cute and the horses go up and down.
I wish I had a carousel.
Do you think that I might ride it some day? When I was a kid, one of my most fun things was to go to Cuba Lake, where there was a big, old carousel. It was sold, and I have heard that someone found it, and paid a large amount to bring it home, and repair it. I have no idea where it is now.
That is cute. I love the smiles on the kid’s faces.
Nice carousel but it’s time for a new post.
I’ve had “Books” nearly written for over a week. Okay, I finished it and posted it!
