Well, get on with it girl!

Come with me!  Our adventure began October 6, 2015.  Our amazing miracle Palmer Thomas was born and rocked our worlds!  I've always lived my life to the motto uniformity is boring and it seems our PT is also following suit.  Hence his early arrival, love for spinning, a side eye like no other and a kindness I have never experienced.  He is our greatest joy.  Around 15 months I noticed Palmer had stopped saying words he used to and lost a bit of eye contact and this is when our journey really took flight.  In January of 2018 our wonder boy was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.  He works so hard everyday and has launched his little personality into the spunky, kind and brilliant toddler he is today.  He loves swimming, all things Cars and of course that Disney magic.  My hope is to raise awareness and raise these stigmas around ASD.  We make a difference by being different!  Our boy and many other individuals with spectrum disorders can benefit from kindness and understanding; which is what we practice everyday!  My friends and family are crossing the finish line AGAIN as Team Lost Boys for PT and so many others.  Please read more below about Autism.  Here we go!!!!!!! 

Autism, or autism spectrum disorder, refers to a range of conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech and nonverbal communication. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates 1 in 59 children is on the autism spectrum.

Autism Speaks is dedicated to promoting solutions, across the spectrum and throughout the lifespan, for the needs of individuals with autism and their families through advocacy and support; increasing understanding and acceptance of autism spectrum disorder; and advancing research into causes and better interventions for autism spectrum disorder and related conditions. They empower people with autism and their families with resources, online tools and information covering the life span. 

Autism Speaks enhances lives today and is accelerating a spectrum of solutions for tomorrow.

Thank you for helping me reach my goal. Your support is greatly appreciated!
