The 33-year-old mom of two shared that her youngest child was diagnosed with autism in November 2018 and was receiving speech therapy.

Jenni "JWoww" Farley has a lot to celebrate on her son's third birthday.

The 33-year-old mom shared an emotional birthday post to Instagram where she spoke on Greyson's progress from when he was first born up until his birthday on Sunday. She posted a picture of her son in the hospital and said that he was the "perfect son from day one, so delicate and sweet."

Farley went on to say that she couldn't imagine life without him and his 4-year-old sister, Meilani.

"You slept on my chest until you were a year old because it was the only way I could calm your chronic cough... yet, I needed that more than you needed me because hearing your breath every night calmed me," she continued.

On an episode of "Jersey Shore Family Vacation," Farley said that Greyson wasn't speaking yet and was having trouble understanding things. In November, she revealed that her son had been diagnosed with autism and was receiving speech therapy.

'As you turn three, you know countless words'

"Today you turn 3. This past year flew by so fast. I had you start early intervention 2 days after your second birthday," the "Jersey Shore" star continued her post. "on 2 days after your second birthday. You didn’t know your name, you didn’t know how to say mommy... as you turn three, you know countless words, call me mommy 10394 times a day and your smile has grown 10x."

Farley also posted a video from Greyson's birthday celebration where he can be seen blowing out his birthday candles and being responsive to his mom's questions.

"To my perfect son, happy birthday... I’ll continue to hold you every night until my last breath," Farley ended the heartwarming post.

When you were first born, you needed to stay in the hospital a few extra days... I got to stay with you and spend Mother’s Day by your side. The perfect son from day one, so delicate and sweet. I cant even picture life before you because you and your sister complete me. You slept on my chest until you were a year old because it was the only way I could calm your chronic cough... yet, I needed that more than you needed me because hearing your breath every night calmed me. now I wake up with your arm across my face or your butt on my head. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Today you turn 3. This past year flew by so fast. I had you start early intervention 2 days after your second birthday. You didn’t know your name, you didn’t know how to say mommy... as you turn three, you know countless words, call me mommy 10394 times a day and your smile has grown 10x. To my perfect son, happy birthday... I’ll continue to hold you every night until my last breath.
