My amazing grandson Nicky

Nicky being diagnosed with autism was scary for all of us but he proves to us everyday that he doesnt have a disability...only different abilities. He is like any other 7 yr old child but accomplishes things in his own way. Sometimes I look at his precious face and wonder what all his giggles are about? I wonder how he has a whole vocabulary in his head but never really learned to talk. I wish for 1 minute I could get into that brilliant little brain of his and see the world as he sees it. He has come so far in only a few years and continues to amaze us everyday. His mother is just as amazing and because of my daughter Renee, her love, attention, and always, always doing whats best for Nicky everyday, I am absolutely positive that he will someday grow into an independant young man who will continue to plow through any obstacle that gets in his way. There's no stopping this mother son team! Eventhough my daughter feels her efforts are never enough......Look at his handsome face! He is a happy, grounded, smart, and clever little boy. He is like this Renee because of you! I love you both so much.....Merry Xmas.....Love, Mom
