Celebrating 2008, The Year of Invisible Posts — It’s Not Your Eyes
Welcome to the Brookston family blog. We'll post updates here on what's going on in our part of the world, and especially with our son, Porter, who has been diagnosed with some form of autism. Our hope is that this blog will help us deal with all the issues we'll be facing and keep our friends and family informed as well.

A Rainy Day
It rained all day in Marin and while Alice, Sarah and I were content to spend the day inside, by noon Porter was going stir crazy. So Porter and I braved the elements and ran a few errands before ending up at the indoor mall across the highway where he could stretch his legs.
At the mall.
Inside, the mall has a play area for kids and it was obvious from the crowd there that Porter was not the only kid in need of some playtime.
A Few Bites of the Apple
After showing a great deal of interest in other people’s food, from lunging at burritos to reaching for pizza, Alice had her first taste of solid food today with a few bites of applesauce.
“Ummm applesauce.”
