I’m not a doctor, but before you outlawed armchair diagnosisisis, I was going to say that perhaps he IS Dustin Hoffman.

But I won’t, since my expert house-like medical skills don’t seem to be needed.

Although on a serious note for years they tried to convince us our son was ADD. We just said “he’s our son”. And except for his penchant for wildland firefighting and picking up new languages, he’s as normal as anybody else now that he’s in his 20s. Sort of.

“Does that happen to anyone else?”

Yes, except mine yells “POOP!” every 10 seconds.

Female lions do all of the hunting for the pride, so yeah I guess that’s grocery shopping if you’re a lion.

Payton’s brillant.

Yes, a tour of the aquarium with a guide – that would be nice too.

Oh – where is the labia post?

You have an amazing son! I, too, would love to go to the zoo with him sometime!

My “Rainman” contains every fact there is about Thomas the Tank Engine and his enormous amount of train friends.

People just look at me like “WHO IS HE TALKING ABOUT??????”

There are many reasons that I adore you, but the one that’s staring at me right now is your refusal to label your son, whatever the label is. You may be the best mom out there, because you accept your children as they are and I think that’s the most important thing that we can get from our parents. Well, that and food. And an occassional Wii game.

Fwiw, my husband is constantly referring to one of our 3 as Forrest or Raymond.

I would read your stories of Payton every day. That is when you are at your best.
