When that diagnosis just couldn't account for the extent of behavioural issues we found out autism was there too. This was tougher, I knew that the problems we were dealing with weren't going away. The delays got too hard to pretend to keep up in main stream school and this year my eight year old is repeating a year. Of course with the delays in so many milestones, we notice and celebrate the milestones when they are achieved.<br />BronwynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077151913672187133.post-20125797346971240792015-02-05T12:25:42.588-08:002015-02-05T12:25:42.588-08:00I am an Instgram follower and LOVE your Photograph...I am an Instgram follower and LOVE your Photography and have now become a follower on your blog, Thank you for allowing both. I don't always comment a lot but just could not help myself on this post. The whole post and the way you express yourself with words is something I wish I could do. WOW !! I was in tears when you ended the post with "You are my sunshine" which I have sang to my babies and grandbabies, however you made me think of it in a very different ( but beautiful ) way!

He has autism and does not talk, but he communicates using an iPad that he types with. He has now graduated with honors from high school and is attending a private liberal arts college. In kindergarten, no one was quite sure what auditory information he was able to take in and process; talking to him now, he is one of my only friends who even remembers kindergarten. I have been so blessed to have this amazing guy as a classmate and as a friend. <br /><br />I just found this blog and I am excited to watch Greyson grow and do great things.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077151913672187133.post-86793510043299948682015-02-02T17:36:56.226-08:002015-02-02T17:36:56.226-08:00I've followed your blog for awhile and just wa...I've followed your blog for awhile and just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your insight and thoughts. Your posts are well written - and you photography is beautiful! But mostly I come to stand in awe of all you are doing for your boys and how completely you love them. I have a son who was diagnosed with apraxia and for many months we thought he would get a diagnosis of autism too. It was a very long, scary road and it has been comforting to read your open, candid thoughts and to see myself in so many of the same situations. Thank you for opening your heart and sharing your journey!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17245382427428193896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077151913672187133.post-60463314883681705042015-02-02T10:59:18.951-08:002015-02-02T10:59:18.951-08:00I have a 3yr old with Spastic Quad Cerebral Palsy....I have a 3yr old with Spastic Quad Cerebral Palsy.
