April

Happy Autism Awareness month everyone!

It’s strange what a mixed bag of emotions this month brings for me. Last year, I decided it was time to rip the band aid off and intentionally be more transparent about what autism looks like in our house. I think it was beneficial, if for no one else, it was beneficial for me to let every bystander know, that we already know that we can present as a hot mess. Or we can present as put together, though that is clearly not accurate and obviously way less common. 😉

This April has been an odd one for me. It’s tough to explain. We have been busy. We are a family of 6, have a couple kids in sports and are very active in our church. But it’s abnormally busy-er.

But my desire in starting a blog, was to continue transparency and show how autism impacts all areas of life for each member of our family. I didn’t forget. And I didn’t forget what a great opportunity this month is to do that very thing. It’s just taken me a week to get going. I’ve fired up the coffee pot and plan to share some more glimpses into my chaotic, blessed beyond measure, daily life.

Is there anything specifically you’d like to see? Marriage, travel, siblings, school, etc?

Let’s touch base tomorrow.
