Marking the end of AutismAwareness month with our top posts
It's the end of World Autism Awareness Month. Along with millions of people worldwide, I am, always, hopeful that the week will help highlight what autism is and is not and how fabulous people with autism (like two of my kids) are and also how challenging life can be for them and those who care for them sometimes. The hope is that awareness leads to acceptance - that's the real goal. So here's my top five autism awareness posts from my blog.

When I realised my son might be different #autismawareness
Anthony was a May baby. The timing worked really well. It wasn’t too hot for the last few months of pregnancy and by the time Anthony was a few months old it was beautiful sunshine and walks in the park. Every now and again we went with the antenatal class mums and their kids.
