Special Kids 5K Race- Autism Mini Album

Hey there friends, happy Monday. 

Recently I had the opportunity to experience a wonderful show

of support from a friend who ran a 5K for my son with Autism. 

My son was even able to run the last 100 yards or so with him. 

It was such a beautiful experience that I decided to take the photos and turn them 

into a min album for my son who I want to be able to really

remember that day with visuals of course. 

I used the April Kit from Creating Made Easy to create the album and I am in love.

I lost several friends when my son was diagnosed because instead of making

 excuses for how my son acted and people treated him, I no longer accepted those

 behaviors and it really made me realize I didn't have to accept shitty behavior from

people for myself either. 

If I was going to advocate for my Autistic son then I needed to show him, I do

not allow that treatment for myself either. I don't want him to think it's ok 

for people to treat him like garbage and he just has to take it. 

So for JD to do this, it meant so very much! The support I have found from

amazing people far outweighs the loss!

WE ARE VERY BLESSED!

Thank you JD!

Light It Up Blue For Autism!

Welcome to the Light It Up Blue For Autism Blog Hop.

As you all know my life is dramatically effected by Autism and to be honest,

I would't have it any other way!

This year I joined the Light It Up Blue For Autism Blog Hop using 

the Creating Made Easy April Kit, and stamps by 

A Creative Journey With Melissa. LOVE this Autism Stamp Set. 

I was kind of stumped on what to make because I wanted it to be blue, 

so I decided to use irRESISTible spray on the back by Imagine Crafts,

then after it dried I sprayed it with gold because there was a lot of gold

in this kit, then I spritzed all the flowers as well. 

I actually love how it turned out but more importantly my son does...
