National Siblings Day

   Happy National Siblings Day! Between Down Syndrome Awareness Day, Autism Awareness Day, and National Siblings Day this has been a pretty eventful month! Though my brothers and I have not convinced my parents the NSD is gift worthy it has been fun spending time with my family this weekend. In fact we took Robb to the movie theater yesterday to see Batman v. Superman. I think the last time he was at the movie theater might have been before he had autism, so he clearly deserved a trip there. Though none of us could really follow the complex plot Robb loved the loud action scenes! I hope everyone has a happy National Siblings Day spent with their siblings and/or other loved ones!

Autism Awareness Day

   Happy Autism Awareness Day! Today I was happy to see that many people were spreading awareness! When visiting JHU I saw a poster on ending the r-word, something many people with autism fall victim to (posted below). This evening was also fun because Baltimore was having a light show with lots of music and lights (as you can imagine) which Robb especially loved! When leaving my family was pleased to see the city hall light up blue in honor of Autism Awareness Day! It feels good to see everyone come together to raise awareness and hopefully it will continue for the rest of the month!
