Fun & Function. Specialized toys, games and sensory seeking products are often expensive but very much needed. Fun & Function is a great website with a variety of products – gross & fine motor, oral motor, language, social skills, clothing – all at affordable prices. There is a reward point system & free shipping on orders of $50 or more. (We’ve ordered so many items from here – items that cost a whole lot more on other sites.) So Fun & Function is definitely a site worth checking out.

Forever grateful to @d3sportsandrec for creating a space for our kids. #autismawarenessmonth #d3sportsandrec #thebronxisbeautiful #thebronxdoesitbetter #bronxkids
I will always remember this photo taken at Orchard I will always remember this photo taken at Orchard Beach. Norrin was just diagnosed with autism and I was shattered. He was two and a half years old and there were so many milestones that he hadn’t met. I was full of resentment and fear and guilt. I had no idea what the future would look like. I couldn’t see any hope or progress. Norrin is 15 and I am just amazed by how far he has come. He has taught me so much about life. I still have fear. At 15, Norrin’s autism is no longer “cute.” There are things he struggles with and things I work to protect him from. But I have hope today. For that I am so grateful. Sometimes people will apologize when I say “my son has autism.” I assure them, there’s nothing to apologize for. Raising a kid with autism is not easy. There are moments when it still crushes me. But I would not change anything about our journey. It’s made us both who we are. 💙 I am so proud of Norrin. Of all the things I’ve ever done or will do, being his mama is by far the best. #autismawarenessandacceptance
Sometimes self care looks like making yourself a g Sometimes self care looks like making yourself a good dinner. I’m learning to enjoy cooking for one. I don’t need to rely on sandwiches, snacks or Grubhub. I made salmon in the air fryer and it was amazing! I used lemon pepper, garlic parsley, sea salt and olive oil. Super easy and done in 10 minutes. While the airfare was going, I sautéed cauliflower rice using the same seasoning (and butter instead on evolution). Also I don’t know what took me so long to get on the cauliflower rice bandwagon. I am officially sold on it.
