Musings and What-not

Yes, the title of this post was inspired by a snazzy Bonnie Raitt tune, but this post isn't about her. Nope!  It's about Hollywood's latest film... that thinks it's OKAY to joke about Autism !! Take a gander at this clip from 21 Jump Street ... 21st Century silver screen version, and you'll see what I mean.

As a mother to one of the MOST amazing people I have ever known, I cannot even fathom thinking these words, let alone stating them out loud... in a court of law, or anywhere else. Yet, Ariel and Deborah Levy did just that. Now, before you jump all over me... hear me out. When it comes to the choices in my life, I made them, and I have zero regrets. I'm here, living this life, as a result of all of them... and I am immensely grateful. I am also a special needs mom... a label, no matter how you slice it, is one that I will proudly wear until I leave this earth.

Facebook has become a wonderful place for me to meet some really awesome folks, and most of the time, these lovelies have me in stitches with the things they post. I recently had the pleasure of viewing the Ryan Gosling, Hey Girl (Special Needs) edition, courtesy of Sunday Stilwell , and man! Is this stuff funny!
