LOVED OUR EASTER!
It is different now that the kiddos know about who the REAL Easter Bunny is. They still wanted us to do the string tied to them weave it all through the house and outside with their baskets hidden at the end of the string. So that was fun! They only like certain kinds of candy (John CRUNCH BAR, and Hannah SOUR PATCH KIDS) so we decided to get a bunch of fun stuff to do on Easter day.
LOVELY!  






Rico, Eva, and Louis's Easter basket! 
 
LOUIS WAS SUPER EXCITED EATING
 HIS EASTER TREAT! WHILE
CHECKING OUT WHAT EVERYONE ELSE GOT.

OUR SWEETHEARTS GETTING BUGGED AT PICS.
I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW BIG THEY ARE.

MY PRECIOUS NEW BABY!
 Who loves when I hold him.
At the end of the day
 Louis had found his happy place.

THIS IS MY LITTLE ANGEL BOY.

THIS IS MY HANDSOME BIG ANGEL BOY.
WHO HAS AUTISM
BUT IF YOU TAKE THE TIME,  IF YOU HAVE THE PATIENCE TO REALLY BE ABOUT ANOTHER PERSON  YOU WILL BE BLOWN AWAY AT ALL THIS TENDER HEART HAS LOCKED UP AT TIMES IN HIS HEAD TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO SHOW YOU ALL HE LOVES AND WANTS TO DISCOVER. ONCE YOU HAVE SEEN HIS SOUL YOU WILL UNDERSTAND HE HAS A PURPOSE IN THE WORLD ACTUALLY IN YOUR WORLD. HE IS A GIFT.
I AM HONORED TO BE JOHN'S MOM AND HIS FRIEND.

HAPPY APRIL 1ST!
I LOVE this month and all that it represents to me and our family.
SPRING, NEW BEGINNINGS, WARM WEATHER, AUTISM AWARENESS MONTH, NATURE AWAKENING FROM WINTER, AND AS JOHN SAYS " OOH MY BIRTHDAY IS NEXT MONTH, THEN SCHOOL IS ALMOST OVER".

This is a great reminder for everyone to educate ourselves more about Autism. The most recent updates on children diagnosed is 1 out of every 80 children- mostly boys. So if you don't already know of someone with Autism you sure will someday soon. If you have any questions feel free to ask me anytime. Also here is the National Autism Association's website. AUTISM 
 
Super cute poem, and accompanied by a sweet little spring blossom just puts a smile on my face.

Whose a lucky girl.
SO GRATEFUL!!

Too old to want to sit on Santa's lap anymore,
 but not too old to just stand by a statue of him.
Thanks kiddos for letting mommy snap a pic

BEFORE
Time for round 2!
Hannah really wanted to get her ears pierced again. We had them done a couple of years ago when GG was visiting us. Hannah now knows the responsibility of having them and will hopfully find it an easier task since she is almost 11.
And they look DARLING!!

SO nervous she had to distract herself by texting her friends.
...and AFTER!
