Autism Camp

Autism has become a huge issue in society today.  I do not think that it is just because I have two children with autism that I notice it more.  Often when I go to the CNN web-site I will see multiple stories on autism.  It is something that people are interested in and more and more parents are having to deal with.  The one thing I have not seen is much response from the Christian community.  That is why I was very happy to see Tyndale University College being active in the area of autism research.  I have been doing some teaching at Tyndale and became aware through Dr. Daniel Wong that they were offering an autism camp.  This morning Logan and I arrived at Tyndale and Logan is starting a week of camp.  He seemed to enjoy himself when I dropped him off and I am sure he will have a great time.  I will be spending the day with him in Toronto, hopefully seeing a movie together tonight, and someone will take over for me tomorrow.  It will be nice to spend some time with Logan like this.  And I am thankful that Tyndale is providing this opportunity.  To see what they are up to, you can go here.
