baby steps

We've come a long way, baby.


It's all about patience. Letting go of the way you want things to be and appreciating what they are. Things come. Life happens. It all flows. Tirelessly.

Finding Joy

Joy is simple.

Children joy in little things,
simple things.
Things like apples.

Joy is all around us, it whispers to us. We just need to take a deep breath and let it come to us.

BAN!

Befriend Autism Now!

Because EJ is special. I feel like he has super powers :)

He is beautiful in an overwhelming way, like nature. Pure.

Undercover Minority

It's amazing how far being cute will get you.

Often when I mention EJ's autism to someone, I get a response like, "Oh! I couldn't tell..." (in addition to all the "so sorry's" and the scrunched pity-brows). I usually put on a smile, while silent E says, "Tell me, what is an autistic kid supposed to look like?"

There is no such thing as better. Just different.

I found about a hundred of these:



with this at about number 96:


EJ has discovered the camera.
