April is Autism Awareness Month. Here is my first contribution to raising autism awareness in April of 2008. The faces of autism spectrum conditions in my house. I have never posted a picture of my children before on this blog, meet my two sweethearts.
Easter fun with the cutest little Basset Hound puppy watching.
On a marathon hike with Pops checking out some local wildlife (non-venemous of course).
A lot of media attention this month will play to those that “suffer” from autism. Autism can most definitely be trying for parents and those dealing with the condition however I wanted to put a happy face to autism.

They are beautiful!
Great start to the month!!
Thanks! I wanted to start off without doom and gloom ya know?
I agree -I think that autism is harder on the parents than on the kids. Our son Zak has autism – and I found you through the Blogging for Autism roll. It is nice to meet you and your kids. I will stop back by for another visit and read more of your posts.
Blessings,

You are truly blessed – they are so beautiful!
(The Basset Hound and the snake are cool too)
Thanks Karen!
Hi Melissa,
You have gorgeous kids and they look like sweethearts too!
I’ll definitely keep up with your blog this month and see what I can do to raise awareness myself.
Thanks for a positive post to start off the month.
