We hit 2500!!!

A few months ago, I made a video about Logan. I got information about a website where people posted videos they had made. A friend sent it to me because some of the videos were about autism. This was not too long after we got Logan's diagnosis. So I sat down in front of the computer one Saturday night. The perfect time to check this out. Both boys were asleep and my husband was sleeping on the couch. I watched two videos and I was in front of the computer with tears streaming down my face. I guess I was sniffling loudly because my husband jumped off the couch. "What's wrong?" I pointed to the computer and told him I was watching some autism videos. He went to the kitchen and came back with a dish towel. He told me if I was going to watch anymore I would probably need it. I couldn't help but cry. I decided then I was going to do the same thing. The cool part about it was that a band called Five for Fighting would donate money to the charity of your choice. Autism Speaks was one of the charities. There were a few times I almost gave up. I am so glad I didn't. It is one of the best things I have ever done. Well, we have reached over 2500 views! Actually, it was at 2554! I never thought it would have so many views. That is so awesome!! I still tear up every time I watch it. I guess I was thinking about it because one of the aides that will be in his class was talking about it today. I registered him for kindergarten today. I am getting more nervous as the days get closer. I know it will be a good think for him. But that's my baby and much as I want he is not a baby anymore. I just hate to think how cruel kids can be. He is so sweet. I am sure everything will work out ok. God bless to all.
