A Singing boy

For those who may not know it, our son Christopher suffers from Autism. And while it is a horrible thing for him, it is also tough for us.

From trying to deal with the simple things like a child who rarely ever looks at you, has never to this point spontaneously given us a kiss or a hug, or even said i love you, to the more complex like trying to get him to use words or just interact with his twin sister. Autism is a condition that affects the whole family.

Nevertheless, we love him unconditionally so, small victories like this are tremendously important for us and a great breakthrough for Christopher.

Enjoy

Merry Christmas from the Gillespie Twins

Yet another visit with Santa! This time at Anastasia's preschool for "Santa Saturday". The looks on their faces and Santa's moustache below his lip ... Priceless.
