The term "Elvis Sightings" comes from the book Unstrange Minds: Remapping the World of Autism by Roy Richard Grinker. It's a one-time utterance or action that comes surprisingly out of nowhere, and then disappears again. For example, one day Joy very clearly echoed "Happy Holidays!" from her Baby Einstein video -- words that we'd never heard from her before, and have never heard since.

Introducing Joy
This blog is all about my daughter Joy, age 5, a cheerful dynamo of a girl, and her adventures in context of a slew of diagnoses: Linear Nevus Sebaceous Syndrome, epilepsy, autism. Welcome family & friends, and friends not-yet-met!

So cute! Reminds me of my youngest, he loves to play in the gravel too (feels great in his hands w/o being sticky).
before I even scrolled all the way down I was all "I LOVE THE FEET PICTURES!" and then to see a salute, well, tears...
love it!
Cute post! (My son loves gravel, sand, woodchips, sawdust etc.)
Self-selected sensory sustenance - the best kind!

Oh, he and Frog would get along just fine. Who needs playground equipment when you have gravel :0)
Beautiful pics! Love the feet pics!
Kayla loves gravel, too. Except she also likes to sneak them into her mouth, which raises mommy's blood pressure!
Rocks rule! My daughter does the same thing.
Ahhh Gravel rocks! Get it..'rocks'..I know, I'm a dork.
LOVE the shot of the two feet :)
