When Eli was 4 he was diagnosed with asperger's vs autism. My husband and I already knew in our hearts, but hearing a neurologist lable him brought tears to our eyes. The doctor looked at my husband and said: "He may not be the kid that goes to all the parties, or the guy with all the friends, but he also probably won't be the guy that gets in a lot of trouble with those friends. He has a future."
My husband and I are so thankful for the joy Eli brings to us everyday. We have our ups and downs, but I know it is God that designed Eli, and I marvel daily at God's uses of him even as a little boy.
