My son was diagnosed with Autism at age 2. Ten years in and I've learned how complex Autism truly is. This is our version. Challenging, crazy and beautiful.

Finger food
B just ate his spinach souffle with a spoon! I couldn't believe my eyes... before now, he has considered this incredibly messy dish a "finger food". Actually, yogurt and applesauce are the only things he eats with a spoon. Everything else (well, all dozen or so things he actually eats), he does with his hands. I always put the spoon out and aside from playing with it, he always ignores it. And just now, all on his own, he used it appropriately for every bite. WOW! Maybe there's hope for macaroni and cheese too. I sure wouldn't miss cleaning that up!!
