Mitch may not always speak with his voice, but his face can say a thousand words. I thank God for this boy every day!
Reflections of an Angel . . . I love this picture of Mitch, he was about 2 years old here and he's always loved looking out the window. He is actually standing on top of his toys here. But what I love (other than that winning smile) is that the glass caught his reflection so beautifully.
Another Great One!
One of the signs of Autism that some children have is they love to trash a room! Sometimes I think it's a control thing, if Mitch see's a stack of newspapers on the coffee table he just can't resist shoving the whole pile onto the floor. In this picture he's 20 months old and after he made this big mess he just passed out in "his" chair (if you saw this chair now you'd know why it's "his") Since he got bigger and the messes have gotten bigger too - we have more or less "autism proofed" our house. Parts of it are off limits, some of the furniture is placed rather strangely to other people, but we have to keep him safe first, and then keep the furniture safe too!
