First and formost I am a wife (married for 11yrs) and mother of 2 wonderful boys. My children are 6yrs old and 9 yrs old, and my oldest son Brian was diagnosed with having PDD/NOS ( a form of Autism) at the age of 2. That is why I am a totally organic and "green" mom. Oh yeah, I also own my own business that promotes totally organic products



As I said Brian was diagnosed with having PDD/NOS at age 2 - he is a very healthy and happy child but is non verbal (although we have an augmentative device that talks for him), not potty trained and has no self help skills - but he is the SUNSHINE of my life.



Then there is my "baby" Nicholas who is 6 yrs old. He loves anything having to do with the ARMY and with firefighting ( my hubby is a volunteer firefighter). He is my "Dennis the Menace" but we love him dearly.



My husband Brian Sr. is a sanitation worker and has been with me through thick and thin (because as we all know the autism path can be a rocky one at times) .



Now as for me as I said in the begining I am a Mom, Home Business Owner, and Autism Advocate in my local area here. I love Graphic design, surfing the web, a really good book and a great CSI episode.
