Carolyn is a mom, a blogger, and an Etsy artist who spends a large portion of her time raising her family of five boys. She loves her role as a mother, and though it comes with its challenges, knows of the gift that each of her children are to this world.

In our conversation, Carolyn takes us through the journey of raising a son with autism. Though the diagnosis was hard, she has come to see the sunny side of autism through her son, Emmett. She challenges us to follow other moms with special needs children on Instagram including Shannon, Kristin, Mary, and Sylvia.

You can follow Carolyn on Instagram @carolyn_svellerella and on her blog.
