David Militello on America’s Got Talent

The other night I heard about a little nine-year-old autistic boy, David Militello, on America’s Got Talent and finally got to watch the video posted on Autism Blogger.  Watching him had me in tears - what an amazing and poised and endearing child!

I remember the first time I saw Gus onstage when he was in Kindergarten.  His school was big on talent shows and his class did a dance to an old-school rap song.  I was totally blown away!  His bus drivers are always telling me about how he entertains them on his long trip by singing. 

I’ve written before about how much he loves music, and he apparently loves to dance as well.  I don’t know that he’ll take it as far as little David, but it’s certainly great to know that it’s possible.  Have a great weekend!
