Last Saturday was the Kansas Autism Speaks Walk. It was a wonderful experience. I teared up the moment we entered the gates, I was just so overwhelmed with all of the different people and organizations who support Autism Speaks.
Because of this great organization, our son, Fisher, is able to get help and is continuing to grow and develop through his prognosis.
We purchased these blue super hero capes and wore them throughout the event. We wore them proudly, because our son is our super hero!
The walk was held at the Kansas City Speedway. It's where they hold NASCAR races and throughout our walk you could hear these cars racing along the raceway. We were told that they do test runs and for a nice little fee... you could even test drive one.
We opted to be spectators instead.
The boys just loved watching the cars zoom by. They got excited every time they saw one and they just watched and watched and watched them.
Next year, our goal is to get much more people involved in the Autism Speaks walk. We want to create a group and walk for Fisher. Wayne's work has already agreed to help and we are excited to make a bigger impact.
We can't wait for next year!!
