I had been working on a speech. A plan. Trying to orchestrate the perfect moment to gently let me kid(s) know that something was different.<br /><br />As I tucked my kids into bed, my daughter was telling me a story about a girl in her class who was acting in an unusual manner earlier that day. My daughter's best friend commented that the girl must be autistic. Led to an amazing conversation, and I called my son into the room to participate. That was over a year ago, and my daughter still proudly announces "I *am* autism!" or "I'm autistic, you know?" or "Oh, Mommy, I'm sorry. I think that was my autism talking."<br /><br />The moment will find you.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00848742657023800817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487608420720365177.post-24779503631331459812013-05-02T08:35:47.983-07:002013-05-02T08:35:47.983-07:00It was really a wonderful month of perspectives. ...It was really a wonderful month of perspectives.

I will be thrilled to read Jack's thoughts on Autism someday...I have no doubt that he will share some pretty amazing ideas just like his mom and dad.

Some of us-- like yourself - get to "let go" at one point.<br />Some of us, sadly, do not.<br />But we raise awareness.<br />Our own included. <3quilterinaTinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04205384925462692865noreply@blogger.com
