Wow...that's all I can say...

My foster PRIDE instructor emailed this video to us this morning - she knows we have an autistic son and thought we'd like to see it

I am sitting here in tears...I love happy stories!

Thanks for posting the video! I saw it on the news last week but, I just finished watching the video with my 15 year old son who has high-functioning autism. He said "Wow Mom, that was Cool!"

It's amazing what kids can do when given the chance. - Suz
