World Autism Awareness Day

World-autism-awareness-day[1]

As I stated in an earlier post, April is Autism Awareness Month, but April 2nd is World Autism Awareness Day.  To be honest, I don’t know why we have both, but we do.  I was contacted by the Huffington Post to answer the questions, “What is autism?” and “What is autism not?”   Needless to say, I was very psyched to be selected.  Double score, since they also picked Barrett’s picture to be published – because, of course, he’s gorgeous.  You can read the article on the Huffington Post Parent’s page.  I loved reading the thoughts of other parents.  We are not alone!
