So near and dear to my heart is Autism. My daughter who will be 9 in May is your classic non-verbal severely autistic kiddo.
Be it she is super funny, goofy, crazy and so beautiful; but then there are the meltdowns, (which are crazy in themselves).
I already feel she is missing out on life, at least in my mind; so for the other people who look at you as if you are a leper because they don't understand. Or you are left out of everything because your family has issues to deal with and we would rather miss out then to have someone say we just need to try this or that or discipline more. Yeah, life with autism is hard.
So bringing me back to my post; the above is only a few reasons why there needs to be more awareness and teaching about autism. With the numbers going up, (1 in 50 according to the new research), the likelihood of you knowing someone on the spectrum is very likely.
So before judging please find out more.
So for Autism Awareness month I am doing a couple of specials, you can get my "face of" pin/magnet for 6 for $1.00, or our funny face autism ribbon, (will be posted in a day or so; just waiting for it to dry), 6 for $1.00. Of course plus shipping.
These take a day to set and a day to paint/glaze, so they will be shipped within 5 days of ordering, so if you would like them for April the order dates for the sale is today March 27th, 2013 to April 20th, 2013.
I hope you all have a great day.
