Hug a little tighter…
Children with autism just seem to hug a little longer and a little tighter because they are not insecure about what other people may say about them… Children with autism just seem to have the most sincere and authentic smile because the smile inside their heart illuminates on their faces… Children with autism will voice honest words that we all…

I heard one of my favorite pastors on the radio share this story and it made me think of children with autism too. Here it is in my own words: Once there was a little girl born with a cleft lip. Knowing the kids would make fun of her for being born different with a lip that looked odd to…
Second vs. Last…

“Mom, I have the pluj!!??”
I was listening to one of my favorite cartoon characters saying, “Be wery wery quiet, I’m hunting wabbits!”…It brings an immediate smile because he is so cute and speaks so innocently and I just want to pinch his little cheeks. The other day, my son came and laid down beside me and said, “Mom, I am not feeling too good,…
