As parents of a child with autism, we know firsthand how every small win feels monumental. Like the story of Zoe, a five-year-old girl with autism who recently spoke for the first time. Her mom gave her a phone to play a simple game of I Spy, capturing what would become a heart-melting moment. During her game, Zoe recorded herself saying, "This is my beautiful mom. She's the best mom. I love her so much."
That was the first time Zoe's mom heard her say, "I love you." Imagine hearing those words from your child for the first time at age five! Moments like these are pure joy.
