Autism Tattoo

This journey has been something that has touched and changed our family in so many ways, BUT for me it has been an emotional journey. As a parent to a child with Autism, you have to change the way you parent this child. That way they understand you and you understand them. It has been a learning experience for me through Tyler's behavioral therapy. It has also been parenting therapy for me. I have to change the way I approach things, how we discipline, how we praise him for doing good and how we carry a conversation with him because he doesn't understand everything the way we do. It's even harder when you have other children in the house that do not have Autism. Everyday I learn something and I am more confident as I go through our journey.  

Getting a tattoo for me is a emotional experience. I get tattoos that have a meaning to me and this means so much.
