Boy with blindness and autism 'sees' the twinkle in Santa's eyes for first time

Matthew Foster, 6, had heard about what Santa Claus looks like from"'Twas the Night Before Christmas," but he wanted to find out in person if it was all true.

"I was just kind of standing there in awe of this happening,'' Wolf told TODAY."I'm trying really hard for him just to get him an image of what Santa is so he can have that imagination of Santa just like any other kid." Wolf shared photos on Facebook that her husband, Shane, 43, shot of Matthew and Santa interacting in that touching moment.

"I was like, 'Oh look, Santa's here, let's go meet him,''' she said."When he's excited, he flaps his arms and has a gigantic smile, but with Santa it was curiosity instead.""Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s provide more than one million free photos with Santa each year, and many of our stores host special sessions for deaf children and low sensory events for kids on the autism spectrum,'' the company said in a statement to TODAY.
