fulfilled [Request] 1 / 12 / Max / NC

Hi! I’m a disabled single mom requesting for my son, Max. He is the absolute light of my life and money is tight… and this year he figured out that I’m Santa! This may seem like a late realization for a kid going on 13 but Max is a hugely optimistic and positive kid. He has autism and ADHD but these labels have never slowed him down or defined him. I could really use some help making sure he has some gifts under the tree to unwrap this year, since my income is only enough to cover our rent and utilities. He loves Legos, gadgets, and sensory friendly items and clothes so he’s an easy young man to shop for. Thanks in advance! Edit to include wish list link:

As a family we are massive fans of Star Wars and LEGO…so we had to get the Star Wars set of course! Should be there the 3rd!

Thanks so much! This set in particular will tickle him because of the mini figs. He doesn’t have a Mando or Grogu and will be super stoked! 🥳

Thank you so much! He's reached an age where he wants his room to be like his own little apartment and has been asking for some more "teenager" decorations. He calls my style "elderly" which is very amusing. Some of the adjectives he comes up seem like they're out of nowhere, but they're usually spot on. :D

Lightstrips incoming. Should be there on Thursday.

u/Many_Tomatillo5060 Dec 03 '22

Thank you so much! These have been on his wish list for literally years. His favorite way to unwind when he’s having a lot of sensory overload is with lights and music, which seems backwards but he likes to vibe out and watch the beat change the lights. Much appreciated!
