Errol and Owen adore each other. Owen is so gentle and sweet with his little brother, and Errol can just about stop looking at his hand long enough to smile for his big brother. What could be so fascinating about that hand, Errol? Someone asked if Errol sucks his thumb, I said, "No, he eats his hand." And judging by the amount of time his entire hand spends in his mouth, it certainly must be yummy.

Dear Jonathan,
I will say again how much like Paul Root this little one looks like. (His big cousin Paul is in Pennsylvania hiking the Appalachian Trail right now.)
What a fine big brother he has, isn't he lucky? Owen is beautiful, too, or I should say handsome.
Cary's brother played here in Athens a month or so ago. I noticed his name in the paper. Athens is a happening music place.
Love, Marigene
Dear Jonathan,
I just saw an article about you and your family in the W-S Journal and felt compelled to write to you. I thought you might be interested in my book, AT HOME IN THE LAND OF OZ: AUTISM, MY SISTER AND ME. It's a memoir about what it was like growing up with a developmentally disabled sister and my family's struggles, joys and triumphs. I thought you and your wife might find it helpful for Owen and Errol. That's why I wrote it-so other families might talk about difficult things.
I'm a writer and used to teach at Guilford College in Gsboro before recently moving to Dunn, NC. If you are interested in knowing more about me and my sister/family, check out www.anneclinardbarnhill.com
You two lovely sons--I'm the mother of three! With two granddaughters and a grandson on the way.
Best Wishes,
Anne
