Our in home trainer brought us a little three ring binder with PECs. She didn’t want to overwhelm the monkey so she only included six pictures. On the front of the binder, there is a long velcro sticker. He has to open the binder, get the PEC that he wants and put it on the…

I'm the mom of a beautiful boy, who happens to have autism.
What others want.
I read somewhere that the grass is greener where you water it. So let’s try to stop worrying of what we don’t have or what we need, and take a moment to appreciate what we have, and just be happy. ❤️

Great Saturday. ❤️
This morning, my husband suggested we go out for breakfast. We had a great time, the monkey ate his chicken nuggets while we enjoyed some eggs and bacon. As we are leaving, the monkey is making loud noises. He noticed the stop sign, a short one, and was very excited. We don’t tend to go…
Beautiful people do not just happen. ❤️
I was talking to a friend who is going thru something pretty rough. And the compassion and love that resonates from her is simply beautiful. ❤️
