Wow, your amazing at putting it all into words. I am so selfish, I keep my awesome son to myself. I am working on sharing him, but it is hard people can be so cruel. There is so much beautiful in different 🧩💙

I think sometimes looking in from the outside, people do think it is sad. They only see the hard, whether it’s in public or they have heard. I have tried to make it so people also see the amazing, the unique, the beauty that my son has and that he brings me. I think sharing the hard is so important, but I also think equally sharing the joy is also important. I don’t want people to feel bad for us, I want them to get a glimpse and push for acceptance. Different is ok 🧩 ♥️

Amazing way of putting things. It is so important to live in the now and enjoy all the smallest moments of life. We get so busy in planning the future that we forget to live the present.

I have watched Cooper’s progress for over 3 years & have found joy in the moment with you. He is an amazing kiddo & he couldn’t ask for more loving parents & siblings who advocate for him. Love & best wishes for a blessed new year
