Why does Jacob cover his ears and hum?
Maybe, just maybe THIS VIDEO can give us some insight. This is the story about a *severely* autistic girl who, at age 11, found a computer and shocked her family, therapists, and doctors. In one segment of the video she explains why she pounds her head on the floor, why she covers her ears, why she hums, why she won't look people in the face, and why she rocks back and forth. This is well worth the few minutes it takes to watch even if we didn't have a special needs child in our family. Like I said, it *may* give us some insight into Jacob.

I have known since the first week of his life when I could look into his beautiful eyes that he has a great and intelligent spirit and I felt more intensly than at any other time in my life the great Love that God has for this VERY SPECIAL person.
