Learning language... We have a grandson who was diagnosed with a form of Autism called PDD-NOS. We are learning his language too.

Although he speaks clearly he has processing problems and a bit of a delay in comprehension so he can be a hint of a second behind in a conversation. Makes a huge difference.

He also has sensory problems that he is unable to articulate so we need to read his behavior to decipher the problem. I have been introduced to a whole new world, the world of the neurologically atypical person. It is fascinating and has taught me a great deal about how to read people who I may have thought were just "weird."

Who knows what God has up His sleeve...
