son

today my son Mike turned 20 years old, wow it seems like yesterday I was protecting him from the bullies in school and the misunderstandings of this world. With him having Autism the challenges have been difficult, he has been an inspiration to me from the first day he was born I new he was very special. He has taught me so much and if I could show half the love and passion he has in everything he does, my life would be complete. He never takes anything for granted ,he never gives up on a goal, he gives more than he takes, he makes people smile and gives me the courage to carry on day to day. what a joy and a privilege to be his mom.
