We Appreciate All The Little Things

Autism has a way of helping you appreciate things in a much bigger reflective way than those around you.


Parents smile and are filled with warmth the first time they hear their child sing. Their tiny voice with words that may be out of order or hard to understand, in the cadence of a familiar song.


We waited patiently to hear our son speak two words together. We waited patiently to have him request his favorite snack. We waited to hear "I love you."


At five, he started singing. He has always had sounds, echoing his favorite cartoon, or one line of a song from the T.V. but he has started singing songs without something to sing along to. He is singing in the bath, the car while playing with his cars.


It is the most adorable, beautiful song, I have ever heard.


I know that his growth is something to melt into because some may never get to hear their child sing. They may never hear hello, I love you, or a single word.


There was a time we weren't sure if we would either.

We understand non-verbal, non-speaking, and non-singing, not as person who understands being unable to speak, but as a parent, longing to give our children a way to communicate.


We still are unsure if our daughter will be able to communicate in this way. We will wait patiently for her songs, words, and requests. We will celebrate each tiny sound and know how truly amazing it is to hear our five-year-old son sing.


This is the thing about autism, the celebration is huge, and the impact of a tiny voice singing toy story in the bath imprints on our hearts because of all the silence that came before it. It imprints because you know there are others still waiting.

Also, I want to learn more knowledge behind the link movement and link manipulating techniques when working on it, especially the escapement, balance and hairspring, the most delicate link part which I was always afraid to deal with them.

いいね!

If the link Series 9 design is a notable departure from business as usual, the caliber 9SA5 link is even more so – the movement represents a step up from the link previous Hi-Beat calibers, in terms of technical features and also aesthetics.

That most august of family-owned Geneva watchmakers is represented in the Glasgow collection, as is Rolex, link the marque he remembers from his father's wrist. And as George Glasgow Sr. said, you can tell a lot about a person between their shoes and their watch. "Without them, a great suit can be let down. But with a nice watch and link a nice link pair of shoes, everything can be brought back up."

いいね!

And it makes link sense for it to be the Black Bay Ceramic. Tudor, a brand known for its heritage-leaning line of Black Bay models, would want something like link this as the front-facing model associated with its new sponsorship. You've got the link METAS-certified movement and the advanced materials via the ceramic. It all tracks, and I believe this will be the representative model of the partnership going forward for now.
