Autism is Beautiful!

11 Apr

 

I’m still processing everything from the weekend.  I’m not sure what post to do first, what experiences to highlight.  I’m still buzzing from the amazingness of what I experienced at the conference.  I’m so blessed.

I’ve fallen even more in love with all that is autism.  I hate having to leave my kids for work.  I want to be part of things.  I want to implement everything I have learned.  I’m feeling very comfortable in my autism bubble and I don’t want to leave.

There’s so much to talk about but I don’t have the time today.  I have to work tonight.  Boo.

I hope you enjoyed the video and I hope it helped you see the human and the beauty and not the problem.

    I want to see more. I loved it. As I’m sure you’re aware since being blessed by autism (as I’ve been blessed by down syndrome), there is far more depth and beauty in these children and these people than I was ever aware of before I had my Amos. Such a gift. A great responsibility, yes, but a blessing of such magnitude we are but seeing only the tip.
    Thank you, again. For sharing and for loving. For relishing your blessing.

    Great video. I don’t think it’s possible to fix something like this without losing the best part of it.

      I know!! So true. Sometimes I get scared that I’m gunna lose the Silas I know and love through some biomedical thing that would make him less “autistic”.
