Our story about adoption and autism with our daughters from China, one with autism, one without.
Today Gracie was giving me one of her wining cries while I was trying to figure out how to print invitations for Joy Lin's party. It went from whiny to drama because i was ignoring her so I got up and gave her two of the picture cards I had made for her to choose from. ( I took pictures of family and basic things around her to use as flash cards of a sort). I showed her one of her bottle and one of her favorite dvd and she picked the bottle to tell me she was hungry! My goal is to get her to take the cards herself and show me what she wants since she doesn't have her words yet.
We took the picture above after watching The Hangover. She really liked the music. But I have never seen a person's eyes glow like that. My dogs, yes. Cats, yes. Gracie, yes. Sometime she does give off this other world-ly vibe. It makes you wonder.
A note for anyone who might read this blog: Drop me a note and let me know your thoughts! I found out recently an old friend from high school follows and some other people have surprised me, so please feel free to share notes and thoughts! Thanks for following!
