Hi my name is nne but I go by my nic name . I am the mother of 3 sons

30yr old, ph 29 yrs old and Jordan 4 1/2 years old. All are my

greatest blessings! Jordan has Downs and Autism. I felt very early on that he

was truly special. At 6 months he would balance rings on his fingers for very

long periods of time. He did start to talk then one day he just stopped. He

developed sensitivies to sounds and situations that before had not bothered him.

My family is committed to doing what ever is needed to give him a good life and

wonderful experiences. Thank you from my heart for accepting me to this group!!!
