I explain that he is THE boy to me. My world has revolved around him. When his sisters came along, and they too were autistic, well, they are THE girlies to me. It is not a rejection, not a distancing, but a deep sign of my love for them that they are THE to me. Now I know you may have just used the boy and the girl to protect your children's identities, and in that case I read more into it than there was. Either way, though, way cool. :-)Kim Wombleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15492455180502821052noreply@blogger.com
