happy i linked up today and didn t overlook your post i m so with you on our society being characterized by lack of empathy and wonder earlier today i stumbled upon a post which is now one of the 37 open tabs on my computer that i am hoping to read later http www parents com blogs goodyblog 2013 04 what parents of kids without autism cant understand socsrc pmmtw i usually try to put myself in other people s shoes but sometimes it s more difficult having no point of reference writing the post about miscarriage brought back memories about people wanting to be helpful but saying all the wrong things simply for lack of experience when i came across this article i realized there is probably so much i don t understand about being a parent to an autistic or possibly autistic child i m still going to read the article but after reading your post i already feel like i understand a little better his photo melts my heart little boys really get to me april 12 2013 3 28 pm reply cancel admin katia i actually had to work today so i need to catch up on everybody s ftsf entries i got to a few last night and really look forward to reading yours thanks also for the link to the other article i

awesome for coming over to comment and sending you a cyber smile right back from dc metro april 12 2013 5 42 pm reply cancel jean heff this is a lovely post and i agree with your sentiments you are helping me see life through your eyes through your son s eyes which will help others too which will get us closer to your world of empathy and wonder also and this is so shallow compared to what i just said you have 100 mastered boy hair i m impressed and still trying to figure it out for my son april 12 2013 7 28 pm reply cancel admin aw thank you jean maybe we will get closer to empathy and wonder here s hoping oh and i love that you jumped to hair because tucker s hair rocks i use aquaphor it doesn t last long but i don t want to use some actual real hair product in his hair when i dropped him off at school for this picture day i asked his teacher to run her hand through his hair to be sure it was sticking up she remembered and that s one more reason why she is awesome april 12 2013 7 48 pm reply cancel daphne no the answer to your question is no his picture doesn t look like autism or delayed or different he looks like a well loved well adjusted and yes appropriately mischievous little boy and it wasn t your eloquent words that made me cry it was the picture of your beautiful little boy april 12 2013 9 13 pm reply cancel kristi thank you thank you so much he is well loved but it s so easy to doubt our first reactions isn t it and aw mwah to you crying over his beautiful picture april 13 2013 12 42 am reply cancel that cynking feeling while i can certainly appreciate this post because i also have an autistic son what makes this exceptional is that your land is one for everyone it s not just about autism or disabilities you ve painted the picture of a land where we worry less about differences except in how those differences enrich our lives april 12 2013 10 53 pm reply cancel kristi one thing i ve noticed about having a son on the autism spectrum is that it s made me more empathetic to all parents while i cannot personally understand what it s like to have a child unable to walk or see or fill in the blank i can understand that none of us have the child we imagined having when we were 8 years old and still believed that life was within our control but you know what we all love our kids no matter what and we all just want acceptance and empathy and wonder and a smile sometimes thanks so much for your comment april 13 2013 12 44 am reply cancel clara leigh so well put thank you for taking us to the heart of the matter that it is a state of mind we d rather live in not necessarily always a physical place beautiful post you inspired me to go into our weekend with no caregiver for our sn son with an open mind and heart to seeing things through his perfect eyes april 13 2013 12 12 am reply cancel kristi yay for finding inspiration in unlikely places i hope that i too remember to go into this weekend without anxiety or annoyance or worry or fear i want to remember what s important i wrote this for me too and thanks for the comment april 13 2013 12 46 am reply cancel shay i replied to you on my blog but i wanted to

live all the time i was watching sunday housecall on foxnews last sunday because they were discussing break throughs in autism dr david samadi said that eventually they will unlock the secrets to autism but until then every parent needs to teach their children to accept embrace and empathize with these special kids i thought that was brilliant and i had tears it s a movement that is starting to form like clouds on the horizon and i m praying for the rain april 13 2013 3 14 pm reply cancel kristi terrye melting at the sentence form like clouds on the horizon and i m praying for the rain
