Ella with another masterpiece

Our daughter Gabriella has PDD-NOS, a form of Autism. She is incredibly artistic and very high functioning. A true creator, she is constantly designing something new and putting it on display for all to see.

All of us as parents have places on the refrigerator where we proudly hang our children’s artwork. However, Ella has so much artwork, there is no way to display it all. So in trying to accommodate all my children, I put her artwork up on a huge clip and rotate the rest. Yet, when one of her masterpieces is missing, she remembers.
