Whoville was an awesome place to be on the 15th of December. It was the day of our autism-friendly show for all family members. What a fantastic show! The house was rockin' and everyone had a blast. You could feel the joy of all the families sitting back and watching their loved ones having a ball.

When the company comes down the aisle near the end, one of the kids grabbed Nancy Snow-Carr who plays Auntie Who. She said the joy in their eyes was so much she feared she'd miss her entrance, but didn't want to leave. We all felt it big time. Our hearts were all swelled up!

Kudos to the Globe's Managing Director Michael Murphy for spearheading the idea, and for bringing this wonderful day to all. Special thanks to Lisa Porter from University of California, San Diego for all her help on this day too!

Baby Who Ren is sleeping pretty good these days. Man, is she a Sagittarian! A mind of her own. Mommy Mere is so great at this! All the kids and their moms along with the company threw us a baby shower a few weeks back. Here are some shots.

Whoville aloha!
