Living with Autism: Joy to the World

I receive a daily email devotional from Proverbs 31 Ministries. The one today particularly warmed my heart. The author wrote about her son who shares the same diagnosis as Nicolas. Although we've never had potty training issues, I could still relate to this woman's moment of frustration. I could also relate to her moment of epiphany when she got a glimpse of the world through her son's eyes. Sometimes Nicolas will just start singing. He also has a vast imagination. He tells great stories and draws elaborate pictures. And, when I don't think he's "getting it" (whatever "it" might be), he suddenly, unexpectedly says or does something that proves me wrong. I hope you enjoy this story as much as I did. I hope it brings joy to your world. (Click today's title to go to the devotional.)
