Hey Y'all!!

Happy Thursday and Happy World Autism Awareness Day!! I am so excited about this AWESOME blog hop!! The reason why this blog hop is so close to my heart is because of this lil man here.

This is my pride, joy, my life, my lil man, my partner in crime, my best friend, my miracle, my son. This is Thelonious Ross Nelson(Theo) and he is 3 1/2 years old. My hubby Tim and I found out that our lil Theo had autism last June. I am not gonna lie.... when I found out my heart hurt so bad. I felt like it was my fault and I cried all day long. Then I realized that I wasn't alone. People like Tim, Mom, Dad, Mom and Dad in-law, Veronica, Amy, Anita, Libby,Connie, Jessi, Pinky, Nitchka(if I missed any of y'all I am so sorry.....brain fart...lol) and many of the Autism FB groups and many others have helped me so much! Y'all are seriously my heroes......for reals.......WERD!! I am so grateful that all of you are participating in this wonderful blog hop as well. It really does make my heart HAPPY to see all of this AWESOME support from all of you!!  THANKS SO MUCH!!To learn more info about Autism please go to the Autism Speaks site HERE! This is my card dedicated to my lil man Theo.......CHECK IT!!!!
