As a parent of a special needs child, it's not the big things that make my son special, it's the little ones. It's not that he's Legos, Pokemon & Star Wars like his friends, it's that he can tell you every detail about them. He's home sick today and playing Pokemon White on his DSi, we are spending the time looking up all the different types of Pokemon to see what their strengths are and their weaknesses. Not just the ones that he has, but all of them.
It's not that he gets upset when he doesn't get to share his idea on communication during the Children's message at church because he's in the bathroom, it's that he announces this to the whole congregation!
A special needs child is just like a regular child just more. He's more lovable, more loving, more honest, more playful, more excitable, more excited, more interested...just more.
I can say one thing, I wouldn't have Kid Jedi any other way!!
