Light it Up Blue for Autism Awareness Blog Hop!




Welcome to the Light It Up Blue For Autism Awareness Blog Hop! This hop organized by two moms of children with autism, Veronica & Tenia. Visit both of their blogs to find the blog hop list and the awesome sponsors. 


As a former special needs teacher, I have worked with quite a few children on the autism spectrum throughout my career.  Not only is there an extremely wide range of involvement, but every child is so very unique.


I have friends raising children with autism.  I admire your devotion, strength, and also your perseverance in making sure your child is able to access the best services during and after they finish school.  I applaud you!

    Thank you for the chance at the blog candy. I am a new follower through BlogLovin: Janis. I am not familiar with the ATS selections or where to find pictures of them, but I know I would love anything with flowers....so I would choose Bloom Flourish because it sounds like it has flowers. :)

    Thanks for participating in this important hop!
