This drawing is so special to our family because it was made by my cousin Mia for my brother Teddy, who has autism. It means so much to us to see the love and thought that she put into creating something that shows who Teddy is and the things that make him happiest. Teddy brings so much joy, laughter, and uniqueness into our lives every single day, and moments like this remind us how lucky we are to have him.
Our family loves Teddy unconditionally and celebrates everything that makes him who he is. He teaches us patience, compassion, and how to appreciate the little things in life, like his love for swinging and sticking to routines that make him feel safe and happy. Teddy is such an important part of our family, and we are always proud to support him, advocate for him, and love him exactly as he is.
