So, we all know that people with Autism find a click with certain things and tend to be very knowledgeable about it. Douglas LOVES cars, especially classic cars. He studies license plates and emblems. Since before he could even read he would point out Walmart trucks! Some people don't understand. At one point, either did I. But I have learned to embrace the obsession! On a bright side, he is going to have a lot of knowledge and interest in older cars. I love older cars too. We have so many mutual interests. He gets so excited for the summer weekend car shows. I knew that the best Christmas gift ever would be a 1950's truck. I found the most perfect one. He loves it. He has played with it since I gave it to him and never puts it down. I hope that he always remembers the special gift I gave him. Karl gave Dominyck a Dolphin's sweatsuit, because this year was the first year that he picked out his favorite football team. We put a lot of thought into their very special gifts. And the expressions we got were simply priceless.
