A Mom's Blog

I ran across this Mom's blog regarding her autistic son. I couldn't stop reading. Here is a little snippet of it.

So He Can't Change His Spots
This morning Bud and I were playing a matching game - turn over two cards that are the same and you get to take another turn. After a while he began to lose interest and just started turning all the cards over to try to find a match.

"You can't do that," I told him. "That's cheating."

"I'm not a cheater," he replied calmly. "I'm a leopard."

I read everything on that page and went to the archives. I didn't want to stop reading.

I love the way his "I love you" has so many different meanings. It put every one of those instances in perspective, so in a way, it did have one meaning and he found it.

I think I fell in love with that precious little guy.

WOW! I couldn't stop reading either. What a remarkable little boy!

That Mom is such a good writer. I felt I could envision exactly how her son is by her descriptions. And yes, I think i fell in love with the little guy too.

I remember reading somewhere about how aspergers children think. It went something like this: Question: "Did you mop up the coffee you spilt on the carpet?" - Answer: "No, it was too wet."

Did you read the one entitled "Luov Letter"? I melted.

Yes, I did - I read it all! Now I can't wait to see what she writes next.
