Mountain of Sand

From JB's (father) Private Blog. Taking Felipe, a special needs boy, to the public park, "I got a chance to hear Felipe interacting with a couple of calm looking boys around his age. Felipe asked one of the boys... "You want to build a mountain of sand?" The boy looked puzzled and Felipe continued, "I can show you how to build a mountain of sand it is real easy, let me show you how to do it." The boys then looked at each other trying to figure out what would be so difficult in building a mountain of sand? Felipe then stoops and starts using the park sand to make what is about a six inch mound of sand. Felipe was very excited with this accomplishment and I guess he felt it would be entertaining to do for the other boys. The boys looking on smiled at each other and then sort of drifted into something else. It was nice of them... at least they did not make fun of him or say something insulting. Later, I saw Felipe trying to interact with the same boys, but they were not taking him on and Felipe just drifted into doing his own thing by himself - so sad, brings a tear to my eye just writing this."
