Don't Judge a Book By It's Cover

I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but we all have different disabilities that we are affected by in our homes and families, and maybe this video could prove useful or insightful to some of you.

I stumbled across the video this morning that truly shows how "with it" our disabled kids really are. I think it is relevant to all different disabling conditions, not just autism.

So.....it gives new meaning to the old saying "Don't judge a book by it's cover."

That's incredible! I started teaching M.K. to read a little bit during the summer, but it was hard for me to do without getting any response from her. I kept telling myself that even though she can't express it, that she probably understands anyway. But, you know how you just kind of slack off....we haven't done any lessons for a while. I think I'll start again. :)
