Last month my family attended an event called “Surfing for Autism” in Nags Head, North Carolina.  My son, who is on the autism spectrum, was one of the participants.  I had no idea what to expect and no idea how I would react when I saw him on that surfboard for the first time.  It was AMAZING and I was so proud!  There was a glow about him that I hadn’t seen before and it brought me to tears.
