Autism Awareness After April Ends

He’s not being rude. He’s being him. If you’re patient, though, he’s fantastic.

I may have helped, but his successes were about him doing it, not me teaching him.

In the end, I’m proud to say, no tables were flipped.

There’s something so unique and inspiring about it, that it’s hard to put into words.

It’s why my stomach gets knots. It’s why I come running.

I never asked her to help “cure” my son’s Autism.

I had to force myself to see the worst of him, even though I usually can only see the best.

What followed was a barrage of sad heart emojis mixed with the occasional, “Stay Strong, Mama”.

Autism doesn’t make my son the best boy in the world. The fact that he’s mine makes him the best boy in the world.

Forever. No thought. Not even a question. All real parents would say the same.
