THE PHONE CALL !!!!!

WOW---What an accomplishment

A couple of days ago we gave one of Dakota's classmates a ride home. He left his sweatshirt in the backseat. We went on to a store and when we got back in the car my Mother said "Who's jacket is this?" Before I could even respond --Dakota grabbed my cell phone; searched out his classmates phone number; and when he answered the phone he didnt say hello or how are you B U T He said"Uhhhhhhh you forgot your jacket in our car---and we are gonna bring it back to your house--OK Bye!"

Oh My God--- this kid is not one to talk on the phone--{usually when he is attempting to talk on the phone he will use visual signals--like if someone asks him a questioninstead of verbally responding he will shake or nod his head and he thinks the person on the other end can see it??????}
He just doesnt get the whole concept of conversation--and to watch him intiate and complete this task was amazing----It was like I got to open an early Christmas present!

Again this is another one of those moments where I cannot emphasize how important it is to NEVER GIVE UP Because you just never know when another ray of sunshine will come out!
