When we received our son's autism diagnosis, I wish the doctors told you then and there..."Prepare for poop spread on more things than you ever thought possible." Buy a steam cleaner if you have a young kid!

Two great books for explaining autism to a young sibling are: "Friends Learn About Tobin" by Diane Murrell and "Tacos Anyone? An Autism Story" by Marvie Ellis. Both books are available on Amazon or by loan from Bryan ISD.
