Special Olympics

I recently got a notice in my sons folder from school saying he was eligable to compete in the speacial olympics.  I was worried for two reasons!  1. Ashton is very sensitive with games, he loves to play but like any average 3 year old he does not like to share.. 2. Because he only has partial Autism and I was worried that if he won anything then it might be taking away from a child whi is much worse off then he is..  I don't want anyone to get left out because he isn't quite as handicapped as the others.  Am I wrong for feeling this way?  I talked to his teacher about it and she encouraged me to allow Ashton to compete and so I agreed to allow him to compete in the games!  I have gotten so excited over the last couple of weeks, just waiting for it to be the day of the olympic games and I couldn't be happier now that I have decided to let him play..  He is such an amazing little boy and I know he will do great even if he just runs in circles! (lol) I am so proud of him and everything he has accomplished.  I am proud of myself to for learning new skills to help him succeed in life.  My life although hard at times is so full of Love and happiness!! I will let everyone know how it goes at the special olympics I am anxious to find out myself.  Thank you for your support to my wonderful family and friends! I know Ashton has a tough road ahead but he also has such an amazing support system and that is better than anything!!  I find it hard to believe that anyone could feel ashamed or dissappointed in these wonderful amazing special needs kids! I think they are so wonderful and I am proud to say I am a mom of one!! I support him 100% and would love to hear anyones story if they would like to share it with me!!
