Greetings ~

We are half way through the month. Next month daylight savings time ends here in the United States. My son Matthew always is out of sync during this time when it gets darker at night and in the mornings while waiting for the bus.

Here's the latest article from the Autism Spectrum Disorders site at BellaOnline.com.

I shared this one with my HFA son Nicholas. Good to have experience in a few fields. His interests are animals, drawing and is interested in baking thanks to the show Cake Boss.

It looks like the show Extreme Makeover Home Edition is moving to Friday Nights - it is on ABC and Temple Grandin will be on an upcoming episode with a family, Friday Oct 28th -

You can find me on twitter http://www.twitter.com/autismfamily - I have a few lists there - one for autism community, one for autism professionals and newer one autism. There is a limit to 500 per list. If I see mention of autism in your Bio I add you to a list.


I hope to hear from you sometime soon, either in the forum or in response to this email message. I thrive on your feedback!

Have fun passing this message along to family and friends, because we all love free knowledge!
