It's that time again!!! Time to LIGHT IT UP BLUE for Autism Awareness. World Autism Awareness Day is April 2nd and this year, Autism Speaks is continuing the Light it Up Blue campaign. All you have to do is switch your light bulbs to blue for the nights of April 1st & 2nd to raise awareness. When your neighbors ask what's going on, tell them that 1 in 70 boys suffers from Autism and they need our love and support. Tell them that you know someone with Autism, and they probably do to! Tell them to read up on the signs of Autism and to support legislation that will make treatment available to families that need them. Tell them to go to Home Depot and buy a light to show their support, or to donate to Autism Speaks. This year, Home Depot is selling blue light bulbs for only $1.65 and $1 from each goes to Autism Speaks. It's a simple, fun way to show your love and support for families that struggle every day with Autism. Read more about our family's celebration this year on our family blog.
Here we are, picking up our light bulbs. Blake gives Grant a hug, Hayden tries to take Cosette's light bulb as she protests. Awesome!!
