I turned 40 yesterday. Last night, my son handed me a flash drive for my birthday. He (with help from his therapist and pretty much our favorite person in the world, Nadia) made this video while I had been out of town for the better part of two weeks.
“It was totally his idea, and he worked really hard on it,” Nadia said. So, I’m going to share it. This is a boy who was non-verbal only about five minutes ago. Boy, things do change as you get older.
This weekend, remember to separate the truly important from the merely urgent, please.
Oh, and does anyone know when submissions open for the True/False Film Festival?
Thanks, Buddy.

Oh man… WOW. That is about the best birthday present EVER! Will cracked me up when he answered that “What do Daddys do?” with “..make lots of money.” Woot! And I sure wish I had a ribbon like that for “writing.” I hope you’ll be nice and share…. 🙂

Awesome! Thanks for sharing and Happy Birthday. I would ask if you had a wonderful birthday, but I already know the answer to that:-) More house money for you!

What a doll he is and how nice that you will always have this to look back on. I noticed some of the facial expressions Will has are the same ones you have too!

You’re so kind – thank you, and yep, it’s true – the fruit did not fall far from the tree … much to his mother’s constant woe. : )
