Can you guess what this vehicle is?

This kid and Legos! He'll be with that company someday, I know it. He looked at a picture of it for like 5 seconds, then built it.

Cleaning, why?

Each time ths week I get a spot cleared in the living room, 12yo fills it w/#Legos, or paper, or crayons, or anything. Happy to help.

An unwelcome milestone.

Zachary had his first ever public meltdown today. Twelve years and autism, I guess I've been lucky. It is going on as I type; he and I are in the van now while M buys shoes I promised her. This is breaking my heart and making me angry at the same time! Trying to restrain my "typical" mother response because that only makes it worse with autism, yet the typical comes out at times anyway. I've never "cursed" autism before...I'm tempted in this moment. My precious child, my youngest-things are so hard for him and there is only so much I, or anyone, can do for him. But it is him, and so I won't ever curse it, not really. Thank you God for whatever lessons today has and will bring us. Thank you my amazingly mature 14  yo daughter, who kept her cool with me, in spite of what she saw unfolding.

Having A Monday...

Searching frantically for the car keys after leaving the store, she couldn't find them in her now dumped purse. She started the car and continued frantically searching the bags, the rest of the car, until.....yup, it's Monday!
