Fuzzi Bunz Light It Up Blue Giveaway WINNER!

Light It Up Blue - Autism Awareness April 2nd

This is Jack. Jack is a four-and-a-half year old boy who loves robots, Star Wars, his dog Starr, playing outside, and video games. Jack loves to run, jump, swing, climb, crash, and slide. Jack loves his little brother and his mom and dad. He is an absolute joy and his smile lights up a room.

Jack also has autism. This means that Jack sometimes has trouble communicating -- he can't keep up with conversations as well as other kids, and doesn't always answer questions the right way. He sometimes has a hard time in certain environments -- loud, busy, bright, or otherwise stimulating places or times can be very difficult for him to handle. He gets easily frustrated and can't figure out how to express himself. He doesn't always respond to his name. He doesn't really understand humor or emotions. Sometimes it means that he doesn't understand the games or feelings of other kids. Jack bounces and flaps his arms when he's excited or proud, and likes to quote his favorite shows or characters. Sometimes he gets lost in his own little world.

Jack is my oldest son. He was diagnosed with autism when he was a little over two years old. It didn't bring our world crashing down. It didn't change him. He was still the same Jack as the day before that diagnosis came -- his diagnosis was a relief and a starting point. It meant that we could help Jack grow and learn to be the best Jack he could be. But it didn't come easy after that -- we had to fight for his services, his therapy, his help. It shouldn't be like that. Autism is diagnosed in roughly 1 out of every 167 children, and yet funding for research and programs is far lower than for disorders and diseases facing far fewer children.

That's why I support the Light It Up Blue! campaign -- to bring awareness to autism and to all the families affected by it every day.

Nicki's Diapers is offering 15% OFF the Light It Up Blue! FuzziBunz One-Size Elite Pocket Diapers today, April 2nd in honor of World Autism Awareness Day. FuzziBunz generously donates $1 of every Light It Up Blue! diaper purchased to Autism Speaks. We're also giving one away -- help us raise awareness and win!

Fuzzi Bunz Light It Up Blue Campaign to Support Autism Speaks!

You may have recently noticed a new color, Light It Up Blue!, in the Fuzzi Bunz One-Size and Perfect Size Pocket Diaper line-up! Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you, Light It Up Blue is the same color formerly known as Big Sky, but it's re-named with good reason!

For every Light It Up Blue One-Size or Perfect Size Diaper purchased, Fuzzi Bunz Cloth Diapers will donate $1 to Autism Speaks, national advocacy organization dedicated to funding autism-related research and helping families impacted by autism.

Tereson Dupy, creator of Fuzzi Bunz Cloth Diapers invented her diapers in 1999 when her son, Eden, was born with severe eczema and was unable to wear disposable diapers. In 2006, Eden was diagnosed with Asberger's Syndrome, 1 in 110 children to live the rest of his life with a form of Autism.

Here at Nicki's Diapers, we're happy to carry and promote the sale of Light It Up Blue! Fuzzi Bunz Cloth Diapers. We hope will add this diaper to your little one's diaper stash, knowing that you will be doing a part to help fund research for Autism and help support families living with Autism daily.
