King of the World, King of the Paradise

Like most autistic people, Sammy has a certain way of thinking and doesn't understand why everyone wouldn't want to think that exact same way.
Our neighbors grandson comes to visit them from time to time and usually makes his way over here to see what the boys are doing outside. When he was visiting around thanksgiving, Sammy saw him and ran inside to ask me if Anthony knew about Jehovah. I explained that not everyone does and that we have to teach people. After going back outside Sammy called Anthony over and said "do you know about Jehovah?" To which Anthony said "who's Jehovah?" And Sammy in a loud, almost annoyed voice said "Anthony, he is  king of the world, king of the paradise!" The conversation ended there and Anthony went home confused I am sure. Later Sammy wondered why Anthony wasn't at the meeting since he told him all about Jehovah. Out of the mouth of babes

I've heard of sister friend,but not this.

Anyone who is around Sammy knows that the biggest part of him is his heart. Anytime I don't feel well he frequently checks on me and often wants to lay by me until I am feeling better. It was no surprise when CupCake wasn't acting herself that he wanted to provide her with comfort. So there the two of them were laying in bed snuggled up together and I hear Sammy starting to sing her a song. I don't remember every word but it went something like this " CupCake I love you and you're my sister dog. You're my sister and my dog." He is just so precious and sweet.

Hold the Tomatoes

It started with Sammy not wanting tomatoes on his hamburgers. Then Liam started claiming to dislike them. After explaining to them that some of their favorite foods have tomatoes, they decided it was fresh tomatoes they didn't like.
One of Liam's favorite snacks is chips and salsa. After he examined the jar of salsa he said " I want chips and salsa hold the tomatoes."
