Autism....well, it just sucks some days.

When your handed the diagnosis of Autism,

I do believe that directions to the nearest

liquor store should be included in your "welcome to the club" package.


It's not uncommon to hear the following at any given moment in my house:

"Oh Gavin"

"PUT THE CAT DOWN"

"Gavin, where are your clothes?"

"first_____ then _____"

"Get out of Cody's room"

"no, those are Cody's Legos"

"why is it so quiet in the playroom?"

"I am listening Emily, you just have to learn to talk and follow me at the same time"

"for the love of all things holy do NOT get him wound up!!!"



It's Autism Awareness Month.

So when people stare at my lovey dovey

having the inevitable meltdown in public

do I get to scream

"IT'S AUTISM AWARENESS MONTH B*&$H"

'cause man there are times I'd like to!!!
