Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Sunday, December 15, 2013. How Do We Keep Going? So I really shouldn't check my Facebook first thing in the morning, before my coffee, before I'm upright. That was apparent this week:. I learned of a childhood friend who's husband is dying, and she will soon have to raise two young children on her own. I was reminded of the year anniversary of Sandy Hook. There was another school shooting. It made me wonder why it was even worth getting out of bed? Lette...

Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Sunday, April 7, 2013. Thoughts on Autism Awareness Month. On March 30th was a success! My kiddo was a rockstar of his own. He transitioned so well during the week in Ohio, meeting and seeing lots of unfamiliar people. I was so proud of how well he did. It was a true family reunion. A friends reunion. A band reunion. And we raised almost $5,000 for Autism Speaks. I was so proud to be a part of the event, and so humbled by all the support. As parents of c...

Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Monday, October 27, 2014. An Apology to anyone who stayed at our Holiday Inn Express. This is an apology letter to anyone we may have woken up between the hours of 4 and 5am this morning at the Holiday Inn Express we stayed at last night. No one was dying. No one was drunk. No one was being beaten. It was just our son being dragged to the car to catch our 6:30am flight back home. Let me back up a bit. No dice. 4am rolled around. Mike and I were g...So yo...

Just Another Autism Blog: May 2014

Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Sunday, May 11, 2014. I don't know how you do it.". It must be so hard.". You have an extra hard job.". It takes a special person.". G-d doesn't give us more then we can handle.". When I hear these comments, I know they are meant with love and respect. I know this. But they can be said about any mother. Not just me. My friend Jody used to say, "Every kid has something." Ours happens to be Autism. And I know I'm not alone in how I feel about being a Mother.

Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Tuesday, December 30, 2014. My Baby's First Haircut. On an unassuming Tuesday afternoon in late December, I cried at the hair salon. It was a day that took years in the making. It was a day that seriously put me at a loss for words. My son got a haircut at a hair salon. Regardless, he refused to get his hair cut. Eventually I was able to cut his hair at home. And then came in Jenn. OUR hairdresser. Jenn is a friend of mine. She has her own little sho...

Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Sunday, November 24, 2013. So obviously I have not done such a hot job of keeping up with the blog this year. And I am not making excuses for it, whatsoever. 2013 has seen a lot of joys, challenges, triumphs and defeats. But I feel like our little family lived every moment of it all. I am thankful for Mike. We celebrated our 10-year wedding anniversary this year. And I was reminded how much fun we have together. Can’t ask for much more! Growing up is hard.

Just Another Autism Blog: Seperation Anxiety and it is Breaking My Heart
http://justanotherautismblog.blogspot.com/2014/09/seperation-anxiety-and-it-is-breaking.html
Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Monday, September 22, 2014. Seperation Anxiety and it is Breaking My Heart. I’m not even really sure what is wrong. We’ve been starting our days fine. The normal routine of things. He’s been asking to take showers and dry his hair with the hairdryer every morning. He is imitating me. Even going so far as to pretend to use the curling iron. He asks to go to the bathroom. He cries there. He can’t tell me why he is sad. Is it a bully? Is he not feeling well?

Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Sunday, September 15, 2013. Sometimes I wish I was Leslie Mann. We are two weeks into Big School. He has been doing great. I love his teacher. She seems to get him, and helps him. I'm struggling a bit with his special services at school, but it is the beginning of the school year, which I know is a hectic time. But I hope for some constancy soon. But all in all, we are all getting used to our new routines and new schedules. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Just Another Autism Blog. A blog about our family. Sunday, February 17, 2013. Reunting and it Feels So Good! Once upon a time.ok, more like 12 years ago, I was a singer in a rock and roll band. Weekends of gigging. Performing the 10pm to 2am shift at local bars with my best friends. Of course back then I was always tired, often grumpy, and really had no clue how wonderful that time was. So when the idea of having a band reunion came up, I thought, why not? Click HERE for our Fundraising page. Feel free t...
