Advocating for Myself…

I can stand up for myself and ask for help and I not need other people to ask for me, I know what rights I have. I know things that I will need the future.

What I like to do…

I really like to work outside, I like to help my Dad move pipe which is used to water the trees and spray the trees for the fruit flies. On Monday we are going to start picking olives. I’m going to be driving the tractor to pick up the boxes. We are going to take the olives to Corning. When we are done I am going to help clean the orchard.
