Our son, Rhys, is the coolest kid. My husband likes to call him the most challenging and fascinating puzzle ever. Rhys has been diagnosed on the autism spectrum, and one of his biggest struggles is in the area of language and communication. Over the past several years we have made great progress in many areas, and we're seeing improvements all the time. Rhys is a very happy little boy who is more & more connected to us every day. While most of the credit can rightfully go to a lot of hard work by a lot of outstanding people, there have been some useful physical items such as books and movies that I think are worth sharing.
This blog will be about some of the things that Rhys really likes, and things that we have found exceptionally helpful in our journey to understand him and help him understand the world around him. I will be including links to some of the things that are available for purchase on Amazon.com. I do have an associate account set up there, and might make a little money from your purchases. That would be great. But the main reason I'm starting this blog is so that I can share information with people who touch the lives of other autistic children. While each child is wonderfully unique, maybe you'll find something you'll want to try with your own child, or maybe a book that you'll want to recommend to a friend with a special needs child.
I look forward to seeing where this blog might go.
