When Hunter was born we noticed some different things about him like not looking at us and not looking when ever we said his name and love to watch things spin. Then when he was 9mths. old and he got his booster for mmr he stopped talking and hugging and cried when ever someone went to pick him up. His mother and father just couldn't deal with his different things so we stepped up as his grand parents and got custody of him and then we adopted him. He will be 10 on Sept. 24 and we wouldn't change a thing about him. But as we all know things don't stay the same and his emotions are going through some changes and he is not sure what to do. He gets aggiated very easily and cries then after crying for a while then he starts to laugh uncontrollable and he dons't understand when some one makes fun of him he things they are liking it when he flaps or when he spins his spoons that he has to keep for when he gets upset they calm him down but spinning them it his fingers.
But in all we love him very much and learn every day from him. Things are tight because I had to quite working because of no babysitter wanted to be with him when he had a melt down or him just being different. So we are a one income family for 4 because as well as adopting him we also had to adopt his sister who is now 4 she is not Autistic but with Hunters special needs things get tight but we some how manage. God has us in his sight and I am sure we will be ok. Love my special Angel very much
