Walk now for Autism 2009

God has been amazing! I had no idea when He gave me this scripture several months ago "Speak up for those who cannot Speak for themselves" Proverbs 31:8, that He has so much in store! Creating team Rock Autism has been such a blessing to me..God gave me an awesome team and we have had a blast going into our community, raising awareness, raising money and BEST of all bringing Hope of a God who has a plan for all the children with Autism and their families! Thank you Jesus for my the support of my husband and children, my amazing teammates, the community businesses who opened their hearts and held fundraisers, to those of you family, friends and neighbors who supported us! Rock Autism raised a little over $2600.00
I love you Guys...the journey is not over but has just BEGAN!!! Enjoy the photos from the walk!

On Day One I asked you to comment on "How do you keep your marriage a priority while raising children and a household." for a chance to win a copy of Jill Savages book "Is there sex after having kids."


Thank you for all the responses. They all encouraged me in some way and gave me great insight.I could only choice one and so I choose....Jenn; Here is what she had to say!



"We have a journal we write back and forth in. Last Christmas my husband gave me a blank journal with a beautiful note about how when we were gone someday he wanted our kids to know how crazy in love he was with their mother. So we write about our dates, or when one of us does something special for each other. Sometimes we stick in love notes we write to each other etc. I love finding our journal-because I know that means he has written something for me."



I thought it was just so romantic and beautiful! Congratulations Jenn... Please check out Jenn's Blog http://jenniferhumiston.blogspot.com/
