Happy Birthday Dante!!




This is Dante when we brought him home, three years ago December. He was 14 months old.


He is 4 today! This is Dante on Friday feeding himself...something he has not been doing since last February, when he regressed so much and was ultimately diagnosed with autism.




I am so proud of how far he has come since March. His teachers and therapists in the special needs pre-school are an amazing bunch of women who really push him to do his best and more.

A belated Happy Birthday, Dante!

What age was he diagnosed with Autism? Kayla was diagnosed right after her 3rd birthday after we noticed considerable regression. I miss seeing her eat with a spoon, too!

What a beautiful boy. I sure miss my sweet 2 yr old w/DS. May need to check Reece's rainbow out...

Dante was diagnosed this past May at age 3. Interestingly, I had requested the evaluation in January, before he had the regression.
