There is so much I love about your post, and as the mother of a child with autism I really relate to your words about reading and writing. <br /><br />But Katelyn's signature is what brought tears to my eyes.

I had my amnio around the same time of the year that you did (only in 2003) and found out the results the day before Thanksgiving. Mine was "good" news (that's the way it goes with autism) and reading your story really brought me back in time.<br /><br />You have a beautiful family and I'm so glad to get to know you through our "tribe"!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901229142046583059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3848169887881858510.post-65818595676617083922010-10-08T12:51:43.689-07:002010-10-08T12:51:43.689-07:00Just wanted to say how grateful and humbled I am b...Just wanted to say how grateful and humbled I am by all of your comments!

She was at the OC book signing and Sat too--she's the answer. www.sohappytolearn.com<br /><br />She does recommend my baby can read stuff for our 18 m to three yr crowd and her methods and therapy (in OC!?!!) start at three yrs. Amazing results and inspires lots of verbal success too. She's teaching reading and writing. <br /><br />Your idol asked my four and a half year old for a playdate -- she ROCKS. She's exceptional but I'm gonna say an example not an exception. <br /><br />I only cried in the hospital once, when I was not sure Benji would read. He will. We will get right paced books on tape for him to use if we have to or whatever. <br /><br />This boy of mine kisses your face EVERY DAY since Saturday. I'm Down with You has huge smiling faces--it will always be his favorite book.
