Adele --
what a wonderful page you have put together and what a beautiful family you have. Connor is a lovely boy. And I was moved to read of his struggles and yours. My cousin Tammy (now 26) was diagnosed as autistic at age four. Reading about other children and families who have dealt with this disorder always has interested me because I then can relate it to what I watch Tammy's family deal with. You've provided a lovely assortment of information and personal stories...congrats!
And by the way the thoughts for the day are brilliant...
peace, Christina
