It is good to edit what you write----when you can.

Because sometimes, a sentence has a different meaning with, and without, a comma.

The Bible has lots of these sorts of things.

I know I use my phone and the screen is cracked in many places so it is hard to see what I type plus usually when I get on here I'm either frustrated or in a hurry I know that is not a great reason but it is the only one I have LOL

I understand. My phone is the same way.

It's nice that you post, despite all the cracks in your phone. It means you're interested.

When I started out at 13, I was always very careful about my punctuation to avoid messages like yours. :wink:

just an observation. it's not about perfection but about making things readable otherwise lazy readers, like myself, won't engage with the content :P

Ok got home from the skate park and decide to see what Jd was doing Guess since mom said his name it is ok I walked in the den and he was playing with his tractors which is very normal but he was singing which is not normal the same song over and over it goes like this

Before the sun came up
He sipped that coffee black
Slid on his muddy boots
Pulled down his feed store cap
He taught me how to grease the points
On that John Deere 9620 R (That is what my Grandpa has)
But what I didn't know
Up on that tractor
Things might be faster in the world
But big wheels rollin' slow
Help you see what's important
What really does matter
Up on that tractor
Just like the dirt is black
So do the years fly by
But when it was time to go
He wanted me to know
Up on that tractor
Things might be faster in the world
But big wheels rollin' slow
Help you see what's important
What really does matter
Up on that tractor
It tore my world apart
When I had to go
Didn't get to say goodbye
And I miss him everyday
When all the fields grew up
This is right back where I came
Up on that tractor
Things might be faster in the world
But big wheels rollin' slow
Up on that tractor
Things might be faster in the world
But big wheels rollin' slow
Help you see what's important
What really does matter
I know even more now what really does matter
Up on that tractor
Up on that tractor
Up on Grandpa's tractor

I looked for the song on the net and found it He changed some words but knew the song we can't figure out where he heard it plus He does not talk and how did he know what tractors Grandpa has I had to call and ask. I guess I shouldn't be amazed he has started to amaze us everyday just not sure why he is changing so much and what seems so fast

That's autism in a nutshell. There's much that is "locked up"----much which must find a way to come out.

There's lots in that kid. The task is to find a way for this "lots" to come into the world, away from himself.
