Juergen talked with Jessica's teacher on the phone tonight. There is a new autistic boy in her class. He also writes. During one of the lessons Jessica wrote that she thought the lesson was boring, and she wanted to leave. Jessica's teacher read this out loud. The autistic boy wrote that he agreed with Jessica! During a religion class the autistic boy wrote, why must we take this stuff? I do not believe in God (this isn't a quote...it is what Juergen recalls from the phone conversation). Jessica then wrote, I believe very much in God. They then asked Jessica what she would like to learn. She said more about Jesus. Then they asked her about what she already knew. She said she knew the story of his birth, and the doubling of the fish. Cute! I'm so proud of my girl!
