One of my boys was very emotional today, crying at the drop of a hat.

He was holding hands walking back to class with my INSANELY hyper little one with Autism who let go of his hand in his excitement to run to the classroom door.

Cue tears and heartbreak.

"He doesn't want to hold my hand! He doesn't want to be my friend! Waaah!"

Before I could really say or do much to comfort or reassure him, the little guy that had been holding his hand took him gently by the shoulders, looked into his face and said,

"I be you best fweind." and hugged him!!!!!

OH...MY...GOSH!!

I nearly started crying then!
