April is Autism Awareness Month

Hi everyone, 

April is Autism Awareness month! 

Please visit the Autism Society and Autism Speaks to participate. 

Most importantly, I encourage you to spend some time with a person you know on the autism spectrum and find out more about his or her interests.  Get into his or her shoes and you may make a friend!

Good News - Working again!


It's been about a year since this blog has been updated - so many events have taken place this year. Matthew has now transitioned from working at Outback doing set-ups to working at a center-based employment facility with Valley Life since last summer.

Matthew has enjoyed working there doing processing work from folding bags and packing them up in boxes to sticking adhesive pads to small kits.
 

The family is happy that he is doing so well at his job. In addition, Matthew is working at knitting many different products, from blankets to scarves made of ruffle yarn.

Hope to finish updates soon - thanks for visiting and have a great day!
