Sweet Words About a Niece

Meet Mattea

This is Mattea and me on the Boardwalk in Atlantic City. She's the one with the brown hair and beautiful eyes.

She's my favorite person and has autism.

She's also highly introverted. When people know and understand that she's on the spectrum, they are more likely to take the time to let her open up. Once they get to know her, they can see how kind, empathetic, smart, and funny she is.
