About Us

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.

What is it with Alice and shutting doors? These were take a couple of weeks ago at Porter’s Occupational Therapy and she kept hiding behind the door in Theresa’s office.

Hi, Daddy!

I’m going to shut this door.

Hey! how’d you find me?

Hot Tub Snuggling

Categories: Photos, Alice, Sarah — J @ 10:10 am

On Sunday afternoon, Alice kept going back and forth from the cold swimming pool to the hot tub. She was very clingy with Sarah and continually wanted to snuggle with her, especially in the hot tub.

Ooh, I’m in the hot tub.

I love this one, with Alice putting her arm around Sarah’s shoulder and flashing a wry smile.

Alice goes in for the kill.
