Ryan.
He is 30 years old.
He likes to laugh (although these photos don’t show that).
He enjoys food (that may be an understatement).
He likes to swing and jump on trampolines.
He loves music.
He loves his laser kaleidoscope.
He is fascinated by wind mills.
He likes nice tight hugs.
He enjoys a good nap.
Ryan is my son.
He is a brother.
He is a grandson.
He is a cousin.
He has autism.
Autism does not define Ryan, it is simply a part of who he is.



Beautiful post Debbie!
This may be one of my favorite posts you’ve ever done. I love hearing about Ryan. What a handsome man. He just has such a kind look about him, like someone you’d love to sit next to on an airplane 😉 You are such a wonderful mother, Debbie!
I, too, enjoyed this post. He is indeed handsome and looks so mature. I am so glad he is doing well in his new (not anymore…) home.
Beautiful, inside and out!
Another great post. Thanks for sharing this. Spending time with my family is something that truly makes me happy in life. I enjoy reading your blog very much.
