What if your child couldn’t speak...but still knew exactly how to make you laugh?

In this heartfelt episode, James Guttman shares the unexpected ways he built a private language of humor with his nonverbal son, Lucas. From early fears about never sharing a laugh to perfectly timed glances and paused songs, this story is a reminder that connection doesn’t need to be spoken. Sometimes, all it takes is a sideways look and a shared moment.

Whether you’re on your own autism journey or just need a reminder of how deep love can go without words, this one’s for you.
