Autism Fascination with VCR Cleaning Tape Drawings, (FYI) while he is NOT watching it.


Dustin Loves to Draw, only these are some of the things you would see. Drawings are always random.

The Nick Jr Phase is SOOOOO much worse than Barney ever was:)

It all started out just fine. You know every child really goes
crazy for thier favorite show, animal,etc. Well I thought Barney
was bad. I couldn't be more wrong. Welcome to MY WORLD:)
A World where a Mom can think that keeping a big box for her
son to play in is perfectly fine. He can explore his imagination,
Right? I figure when the box is worn out; I'll just throw it
away......no big deal:) Only, our Boo Bear has not once played
in the box. Instead, he created a Nick Jr Shrine.
He is TRULY AMAZING! He even taped Nick Jr icons
that he made out of Playdoe. That took a lot of tape (LOL)
Other pictures are ones he drew & cut out.....he decorated this by his
creative hands alone:)
This is my favorite out of all of Dusin's unique forms of expressions.
Socks have to be hidden now too. Or else they become Dustin's
"NICK JR SOCKS" as he would say.

"Autism Run 5K Pictures" : brought to you by, S.M.A.A.R.T.Mom

So I participated in my first Autism Run. What a Challenge!
Call me crazy for my "Boo Bear":) I've always joined the Autism Walks; but when I found out about an Autism Run I just had to give it a try. My good friend Shalley decided to accompany me. The Run was soooo invigorating; but I considered this experience to be not only an original way to get a "Mommy Time-Out", but a definite way to release any stress I needed to release:)
I know the word "Run" makes some people moan and groan, but I really encourage you to say instead......."Why Not! I can at least give it a TRY. Never underestimate what you are capable of.
See you at the next Autism Run, OK?
