  • This photo was taken by Kyle, a 10 year old budding photographer with Autism and ADHD.  His Mom introduced him to photography in an effort to aid his communication.  The results have been very positive.<br />
<br />
This post tells the story of Kyle and his Mom, Penny: <a href="http://wp.me/pasxa-n0">http://wp.me/pasxa-n0</a>.  Happy Mother's Day!

  • "Whether it’s the pursuit of prosperity for our people or the struggle for equality for all our citizens, our commitment to stand up for our values abroad, and our sacrifices to make the world a safer place. Let us remember that we can do these things not just because of wealth or power, but because of who we are, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. Thank you. May God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America."  President Obama, 5/1/2011<br />
