I have no words for what has been going on here the last few weeks. It is like a light has gone off, and I am almost scared to say anything for fear of it going away. But (you should sit) Cotton is actually playing, not only with toys, but...WITH HIS BROTHERS, appropriately!!! I have tons of pictures, but alas, I left my camera at my moms, so you will have to wait. As I am writing this he is playing the Wii with Landon. This weekend the two of them stood by the side of the of the pool and jumped in unison for over an hour. Cotton would count "uh, dooo, eeee, go!" and they would jump in with a big splash at the same time. Their little feet were bleeding by the end of it, they were having so much fun together.
Not only is he playing, but he seems to have developed... compassion. I seriously have no idea where this is coming from. When Rev or Landon cry, he goes over to them rubs their chest (to sign sorry) hugs them, and rubs their hair...What!?! He has been getting them their drinks in the morning, and pouring syrup on their pancakes. He then slowly walks the plate over to their place, and with a big smile on his face, leads them to their chairs.
Okay, so I hope I haven't totally jinxed myself but this is totally amazing!

This bring me such hope for my boy who also has albinism and autism! I am so happy for him and for you! :-)
Wow! I can imagine you must be pinching yourself!
THIS GIVES ME HOPE TOO. I was meaning to email you on FB, and ask how he interacts w/ his brothers. Cash is getting better.. much better than a year ago.
