You did such a wonderful thing by writing this song. It truly shows the unconditional love a parent has for their child. I am the mother of two girls and can appreciate your strength and love. I wish you and your family the courage and strength to continue.
My family and I will keep you in our prayers.

I would just like to say that she is a beautiful little girl, God doesnt make mistakes and he didnt when he blessed you with her. We may not always understand what Gods plan is for our lives, but only something good will come from a blessing like her. I work with people with disabilities everyday, I they have more compassion, and love then any of us will ever know. Take care and God bless you and your family
P.S I truly loved the song.

Mike and Liz, you are my inspiration. Liz, you are the most wonderful and patient mother that I have ever known. I watched this video and cried because I know the road has not been easy for your family. You two are here to change how the world views Autism and make a huge difference. Love and blessings to the Stong family. Here is one of my favorite quotes that keeps me going in hard times.

I have watched your video over and over again, and am touched so immensely each time!!! I was wondering if your song was "available" anywhere? I have 2 children with Autism (a son and daughter) and I think the words of your song are SO true and would love to have it to play! May God bless Sophia and the rest of your family!!!

Mike and Liz, that is a wonderful song!! I cried through the whole thing....I have an almost 4 year old son with Autism and every word of that song is true! I am a single mom dealing with this every day and it's been a long hard road but we are definitely getting there. Keep on putting out songs like this one!! Sandy ps He is going to Sofia's friends on garfield once a week and it is really making a difference in his life...along with school everyday. Thank you so much for helping my son!
