We met in Jr. High at John Muir in 1994 in San Jose, California. We both were sitting by ourselves and a bit lonely during lunch. Sophie (who can talk to anyone) struck up a conversation with me and the rest is history. At the time Michelle was living in Kenya and her family was only in the US for one year. After Michelle left we continued to write letters to each other. In our 10th grade year, Michelle came back for 6 months and we went to the same high school Willow Glen High. On the first day of school, Sophie introduced Michelle and to all her friends and said, this is Michelle, she lives in Kenya can she is joining our friend group. Instant friends, yay!! More stories later... but here we are living in San Jose both with our own families (Sophie married to Ken in 2005 have a boy 6 years and girl 8 years - Michelle married Pascal in 2006- a boy 7 years and a boy 10 years). Each of us has an autistic son, and through this hope to show awareness about traveling with autistic kids.
