My phone just belted out a weather alert.  We have a frost advisory on affect for tonight and tomorrow morning.  We already have leaves on the ground.  It's the perfect time of year for a huge pot of chicken noodle soup. I love to cook,  so this is a good day for me.  I have the chicken boiling right now and will sneak in all the veggies in the morning.  I love making good, healthy food for my family and a hot bowl of chicken noodle soup on a frosty evening is just awesome.  Do you have any favorite, seasonal foods?

I get a lot of different people reading this blog everyday.  Most are special needs parents but some are friends and family of special needs parents or just people that want to learn more. This is a really rare opportunity because if we embrace those wanting to better understand and learn,  we can take part in educating them about #Autism.   Taking it one step further,  we can also help empower them with the knowledge of home they could reach out and help a special needs family like yours and mine.  So today's #Autism Discussion is going to be, how could someone help your special needs family?
