April is Autism Awareness Month

It has been one year since I began this blog and I cannot believe the time has gone by so quickly. With that said, SO many great things have happened for Bradley just within this year. If you are reading this, thank you for your interest, support, and advocacy for the autism community and my son, Bradley!

Bradley is doing well in school. He is reading. He is socializing more. He is talking more frequently and clearly. Bradley is truly trying to be the best Bradley he can be. This makes me incredibly happy!

April 2 was World Autism Awareness Day. Light it up Blue is a campaign to encourage individuals and business to wear blue to bring awareness to autism spectrum disorders. Our school district, Boling I.S.D, encouraged kids, staff, and teachers to wear blue on April 2 and 3rd to promote autism awareness. What a great response for the first year! As my sweet friend and fellow autism advocate Lori said, "365 days a year we celebrate Autism! Today the world celebrates with us!!" Let us continue to spread the word about autism and those it affects. Thank you for reading about, sharing, and supporting our efforts.
