Life with my adult Son with Autism. Finding
the joy in between

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I don’t have any videos of our sons younger
years in Autism!!
I don’t wish I had any either….
The truth is
Social really didn’t exist and I don’t think I could had recorded it…
The meltdowns. The fear & confusion in my son’s face. .
None of it was filmed.
But Today, my son is an adult and those memories still live in my heart.
So if you’re in the thick of autism parenting right now please don’t lose hope.

I see you, Mom. 🤍

Being an Autism Parent means becoming incredibly good at pivoting 😂🤍

I’ve learned there’s beauty in making it work anyway.

And yes… I was absolutely listening in on therapy 👀😂

Giving the woman in this picture a little
space to be seen.

I share so much of my life as a mom, wife and caregiver.
And I love that part of me.
But this is me, too!!

Enjoying, Feeling & Having

She doesn’t need a special reason
to make an appearance. 😉🤍

P.S. So thankful for my wonderful husband and my family for making room for me to have these moments, too. 🤍

Autistic kids become Autistic adults.
Adult Autism deserves more conversations
and more damn resources.
Growing up shouldn’t mean getting left out. ❤️
