Walk Now for Autism Speaks - A Familia Affair!

Hola! Hope everyone is having a superdeeduperdee relaxing yet fun-filled weekend thus far.  As you all may know or may not, April is Autism Awareness Month.  My heart can never refuse partaking with any event involving a good cause.  I have avidly participated in many events such as marathons, bake sales, even a Pole Dancing Event which involved raising money for cancer and/or leukemia research.   Sunday morning (tomorrow) I am blessed, privileged and honored to participate in the Walk Now for Autism Speaks with mi Familia.  This event hits home deeply.  Meet my beautiful, gentle little man Brenden Shaun aka Chumbi.  He is 4 years old, my youngest G-Kid and my brightest ray of sunshine.
Every 11 minutes, another family receives the devastating news that their child has an autism spectrum disorder.  I'd love it if y'all will join me and mi Familia in spirit, mind and soul as we walk to change the future for all who struggle with autism!

Meet Team Brenden Shaun aka Chumbi

You could read more about Chumbi's story told by his own Mother (my Precious Treasure1) on her own blog Shashack, which by the way I gifted her few months back.  Let's share the love, support and inspiration!

Tootles!

  2. I'll be there in spirit for you tomorrow for sure. I've worked with many students with ASD and they are totally different in a totally brilliant way :)

    MHI is running a marathon tomorrow too - I'll dedicate that to you on his behalf ;)
