Today is Autism Awareness Day...and while I share with you a photo of my quirky Thing from 2002, I'm really thinking of all the families that are just starting out on this journey. It seems hard to believe that this summer, it'll be 10 yrs since we first heard whispers about what might be the reason for Thing One's speech issues.
He has come so far...and yes, he still has tasks to master...but I have hope and believe that someday....all of this will be a distant memory...not just for me and my family, but for the countless other families out there that are raising a quirky kid.

So many families are dealing with these issues. Your boys are so darn cute, Martha. They have a sparkle in their eyes!
Oh, he's so little!! That's when I was just getting to know you.
Yes, very true. I saw a show on pay TV the other day. A family that lives with autism x 6
Everyone of their children suffers from a form of it....my heart went out to them....
Looking at that picture all I can think of is, "ooohhh man, the BEACH!" I think I need a vacation.
He's perfect!
