World Autism Day!

April 2nd is world autism awareness day. One of my fellow warrior moms Heather put it best: this is not a day to celebrate autism but a day to celebrate our children with autism, the parents, siblings, teachers, and therapist who work hard everyday to help find the pieces of the puzzle.

So today I celebrate my baby boy for all the hard work he does every day. He may not communicate in the same way as other children his own age, need to be taught how to do things that other children find "simple" and may get frustrated and melt down, but through all his daily challenges he is our happy and healthy little man!

Tonight we will be lighting up our house blue for world autism awareness day! The link following today's post takes you to the Light it up Blue site that has a list of all the cities in the world that will be participating and how they are going to be showing their support!

Light it up Blue!
