What a lovely end to the day; thanks for sharing it.

I like the response that Jim gave. So what was the reaction of the friend?

But Dark Knight was a darn good movie. It was dark though, but there was that bit of light and hope in it that made it just so awesome. Now I want toys. I wonder if I should see it again...

"It" of course being any obvious, uncomfortable-to-others signs that anything might not be totally typical about my daughter. I'm not sure why people see so much dark in a label applied to my daughter when her life itself is so much light, no matter the challenges she faces. There are certainly some dark nights, much more in the beginning as we flounder about, reaching for a light switch to our understanding of our daughter. But there have been and are many, many light-filled days. I'm so happy to hear Charlie is enjoying his time on the beach these days.

You are so lucky to have friends willing to share your lives with Charlie, and I think they are lucky to have the chance to enjoy the world his way. xx I’m with Charlie on this one; a beach under a dark sky is dramatic and interesting, and very very sensory.
