I love how Jodi is not occupied by anything else, even when the people at the other table are looking at her, she is so engaged with this man. THAT is so telling of who Jodi is, and that she cares about her work, and the way she impacts others.

[@MARS0l]

She listened to every word you said and took it all in. Such a a rare beautiful person she is. I love her so much. Ariel will always be my ❤️ we love you Jodi!

[@nathancruz9172]

Me too

[@lindarobertt6206]

I came across this by accident and was so touched. I work with special needs adults and was so moved by the letter and Jodi's sincere kind and loving response. Actually several of our clients are big fans of Jodi and Part Of This World. This really inspired me to keep doing what I am doing!

[@tylerhynes0]

As a fellow autist myself, this was extremely touching. You can tell he had so much he wanted to say to her and wanted to make sure nothing was left out. Kudos man!! This makes me want to meet Jodi!!

[@RedaDoodles]

I randomly came back after a year to this video and I cried just as much. What a lovely moment.

[@WHATTHEBUCKSHOW]

This was so beautiful!

[@KristinaHoogs]

What an amazing moment. Your letter and expressions are so touching and beautiful. You’ve got me tearing up too.

[@jswatch9270]

It is touching and I'm glad Jodi Benson loved it.

[@tommarsee6319]

Young Man I know how you feel and that letter of yours was beyond inspiring. And Evan I've gotta say buddy that as a man of God who also has autism, this here is quite a blessing. And as for you Miss Jodi, you have my deepest and utmost respect!

[@eamonndeane587]

I hope Jodi Benson had a Very Happy 60th Birthday today.

[@ericoxner326]

He poured out his heart here.And I did not have autism but I did have a learning disorder.I could learn more by sight than book.And being this was in the 1970s.They really did not know what to do with kids with problems like this.He touched her heart here.God bless this young man and Jodi.And thst goes for all young people that have a leatning disability.

[@supercoolr9330]

Jodi Benson is my life hero because she inspire me to write my life stories, and share my life stories with Jodi Benson, and Paige O'Hara too. Thank you for so much. We all love you.

[@supercoolr9330]

I'm so excited for the Denver Pop Culture Convention because two of my beloved Disney princesses are gonna be there too along with Irene Bedard, Linda Larkin too.

[@SlyFoxGaming93]

Just now coming across this video after a couple years. Wow, I'm so proud of you for being so courageous and opening up yourself up to Jodi. As a person who also has autism, it is a struggle but also a tremendous gift that we have been given. We are all wonderful human beings and we should have more moments of humanity like this. Spreading peace and love to others.

[@tommarsee6319]

Lately I've been feeling like Jodi has helped me a great deal through Thumbelina over the past few months now.🥰

[@emilymarett9826]

I also have autism and special needs and my mom died earlier this year and this book has helped me a lot with the grieving process and I've had my moments where the grief would get to me and the book helped me with it especially when you would put Bible verses in there and talk about God all throughout the book

[@emilymarett9826]

I would love to get to meet her someday

[@jacoblakins6628]

One of the sweetest things I've ever seen. God bless them both ❤!

[@juanjohnson8137]

[@RebeccaHeckenbach]

This is absolutely beautiful!! I love her heart and her authenticity and her compassion!!! And he seems so smart and so articulate!!! He has an incredible heart as well and it showed through in this and the letter he gave her!! What an incredible and special moment!! So glad it got videoed for him! That way he can rewatch anytime he needs a reminder that someone outside of course his parents cares about him 🙏🙏

[@evanmorris6057]

Thank you, Jodi for the kindness you showed me and continue to show me today. I’m so grateful for our friendship! Much love to you and your family. And Mom, none of this would have been possible without you. Thank you for flying us to North Carolina just so I could meet one of my biggest role models. I loved experiencing this with you. Love you tons, Mom.

[@CBRCommando]

Hi Evan. Just wanted you to know that the love you showed to Jodi, is reflection back of who you are. You allowed yourself to be vulnerable on this social media platform and that too takes courage - another great characteristic that I'm sure you have. Wishing you the best in life, and never question yourself when being open and honest. You are a fine example of a human being and man. Your family is lucky to have a son like you. Besh wishes always...Dave Australia

[@tylerf5929]

you are both beautiful human beings

[@BonitaBeach13]

I can totally relate to the guy. I have fragile X and OCD which are forms of autism. I've looked up to Jodi as well, not so much Ariel. Especially as another mom.

[@arceerogueharleyquinncapta9925]

i agree with him 100% took the words right out of my mouth.

[@Anonymous-qg9xx]

So glad there were not others in line behind waiting! That is true dedication!!! I sort of wonder if Jody was thinking "could you wrap this up!"...........I'm surprised fans get allowed to stay that long with an actress/actor.....it's longer than a meet and greet!!! It's better than a meet and greet!!!

[@natalieiswriting]

I was there filming this and she was so genuinely in the moment, not impatient at all. There were others waiting in line, but everyone was super kind and actually many of the people in line were very sweet and touched by Evan's letter.

[@dgc613]

I seriously want to meet her!
