New York Times articles re: Muppet with Autism

Hi all, the New York Times ran two fantastic pieces today re: the new Muppet with Autism, Julia.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/07/well/family/what-a-muppet-with-autism-means-to-my-family.html?emc=eta1&_r=0

As was noted in the article, it will be great when we just call her Julia, not Julia the Muppet with Autism.  Maybe we can start that today?

About Me

I like people. I am genuinely curious about how people work, why they think and do the things they do, and that curiosity shows. If I don’t understand something you are telling me, I will ask you to explain it to me again, until I get it. I will suggest other resources in the community that might be a good match...
