About Me

My photo
Ericka Autiegirl
I am a wife, a mother, and a genuine AUTIEGIRL! :) Diagnosed Autism at 29 1/2, I finally have the proof I need to step out and say "YES, I have autism!!" instead of just saying "Well, I think...." I'm proud to be a part of a group of unique, challenged yet thriving people. We are artists, authors, spouses, parents and so much more. I just wish I had known sooner. I will write a lot of things here about my journey.
