Nathaniel was born one month early. He was our little family blessing. He reached most of his milestones on time or earlier. At age one we noticed a decrease in words and at 18 months nothing but silence. We started e.i and worked with speech therapy. At 6 days after his 2nd birthday he was diagnosed with autism. My wife and I had expected it so we weren't in shock. He takes a.b.a classes right now and improves everyday. It's not easy raising and child on the spectrum, but it has taught us so much compassion, patient and understanding. Also the fact that he is a love bug doesn't hurt either. We love you baby bear!
