The Hug is Worth the Wait

!’'ve always been admiring the network of moms autism attracts to our lives. Here is one such mom — Patrice Athanasidy. With a son on the spectrum, Patrice has written a number of stories exploring "The Little Things" about autism. We will share some of our favorite stories of hers here from time to time. This is reprinted with permission from Patch where she ran a column called "It's The Little Things.

Patrice, welcome to Independence Day — and keep blogging mommy!
