Ruler of the Universe


I bought Corbin a new book, Everybody is Different, for us to read. I want him to be aware of his feelings about having a brother with autism, and realize it's okay to have feelings that might seem "bad".

The book starts right off with explaining autism. It says at one point that a lot of times people with autism behave as if they are in their own world. Corbin stopped me reading at that point and threw his fist in the air and yelled, "I knew it!! I knew Brian was ruler of his own universe!"

I have no clue what he was talking about- I tried to get him to elaborate but to no avail. Regardless, I thought it was a funny little moment.
