Our New Beginning

❤️💛💙 My Dear Sweet Child, I hope you know that I am doing the very best I can. There are days that I don’t understand what you need. Some days my patience wears thin. Many days, my heart breaks watching you struggle. But, there is not a single day that goes by that I am not the proudest parent ever. You are my life. My purpose. The love I feel for you is never ending. Autism may be hard, but loving you is easy. 💙💛❤️

    The Begining

    In 2019 I was finishing up nursing school. During a pediatric class presentation I noticed that the video we were watching reminded me a lot of my then two year old. The child in the video was sitting on the floor playing with his toys in similar ways to how my son also played with toys. I thought the things he did were different but never understood why he was doing it or that there could be something causing some of the other “odd” behaviors we were experiencing at home. I didn’t realize then that this would be the beginning of a long new road for my family.
