Those of us who are living with autism are all on this ride together. Traveling, dining and any other activities with special needs kids are challenging. I had trouble finding advice, so I decided to write about the things I want to read about. This is a place of thoughts, ideas, feedback, venting and most of all, support.

Easter
I’m getting more relaxed with our life as it is. I remember when we had our first child, there
was chaos at first, then we settled into a routine where certain things were
expected and then dealt with. Of course, this evolves over time, but it
wasn’t too hard to adapt. Then came
child number two. Chaos again. This chaos lasted much longer. The chaos evolved into different kinds of
chaos. Things are surprisingly
manageable these days. I hope I don’t
eat those words shortly.
Easter was fine. Todd
was up at his usual 4:30, Sean at about 5:30.
They were jacked on Easter Bunny sugar by 6 a.m. Literally ate all the candy in their baskets
by noon. I was a bit bummed about that
because their father and I usually graze the leftovers once the kids have had
their fill of holiday candy.
Kids did fine at my husband’s family party. Ate more candy, plus some proper food. Sean did parade nude through the party
because he was having trouble re-velcro-ing his pull-up after going to the
bathroom. Hell, he did that in a
restaurant once. Sean nudity in front of
family is no big deal.
They reluctantly went back to school today. Lots of protesting. They love school, their teachers, the bus,
their bus driver and bus aide, but I think going from a day of candy to a day
of work was what bothered them. They
have one week and one day of school and then we’re off to Disneyland…
