Light It Up for Autism Awareness Blog Hop


Hi everyone and welcome to the Light It Up Blue For Autism Awareness Blog Hop! I am thrilled to be joining so many talented ladies to celebrate World Autism Awareness day.

When I saw this idea, I knew I have to join in. My mom used to volunteer at a school for autistic children and my adopted brother, Deddy, works at one. It's his dedication to these children that inspires me. At one point, he was discussing with with my mom about changing career and stuff, but his heart is really on working with autistic children. He just has a big heart. I am joining this hop to honor him & his dedication.

We have so many fantastic sponsors that have shown their support for Autism Awareness and you can see the complete list on Veronica Zalis blog.  

If you would like a chance to win a prize from one of these fabulous companies leave a comment on this blog, and any of the other blogs participating in today's hop! Winners will be chosen at random and will be announced on Monday April 6. Now here is the card I created for today's hop!




I use the sweet Fairy image from SugarPea Designs and I think this sentiment totally works for everybody. Each person is special and unique and we all in our own uniqueness should leave a little sparkle wherever we go.

I know there are a lot of people joining this hop. So, I am keeping my post short & sweet. To see the complete list of the participants please click HERE. Have a blessed Thursday, everyone.
