In Lieu of a Real Post...

...I give you a cartoon series I found today on one of my Autism lists. It's a lot more funny if you have a kid with Autism, as parents of kids with Autism are probably the only people who talk about poop more than young boys do.

I read the first 53 comics in one sitting, and it was so much like my life three years ago. Hutton's first "word" in sign language was also "more," which he did when he wanted more food or more pushes on the swing. It's amazing to realize how far he's come since that point. He now talks using his voice, doesn't flap his hands or walk on his toes. He still has some definite delays and behavioral problems, but he continues to impress me with something new every day. This morning it was when he came upstairs to say, "Harrison, come downstairs and eat lunch with me, please." Considering he didn't speak at age two, that sentence thrilled me!
