Come Fly With Me - Frank Sinatra

Listening to the Radio yesterday I happened upon an interview with Temple Grandin
The savoir faire of this seasoned mother, was taken aback by the realisation that I have done no research, reading, updating on the subject of Autism for quite a while now.
Why?
Well that's just what I thought!
Conclusion?
Well I could rant and rave about 1 in 150 babies being diagnosed, yet according to medical and political criteria it's NOT an epidemic.
Hell, I could wax lyrical for days on "my" thoughts and opinions.
The truth though is quite straightforward.
Scoot is Scoot.
And quite the Scoot he is!
WELCOME TO HOLLAND was given to me by a Child Psychologist a few months after Scoot was diagnosed. At the time, and for many, many, years later I could not afford any comfort from it.
Now, as his 14th Birthday approaches, Holland is the best place on earth.

Goodness, how many ways there are for us to find cracks in our own armor.

I'll bet you've done a darn good job.

Here's a problem with comment moderation. (not that I'm trying to change your ways) Your never really sure if your comment went through.

And when you get no comments you can just log onto your traffic counter and stare at it for awhile.
