I thank you ....from the bottom of my heart.....for taking the time to stop by...leave a comment....to show you give a damn. That means everything to me. <BR/><BR/>Yes....when Noah is asleep as he is now....is usually when I can take that deep breath. AND that is usually when I realize how alone I am...and that is extremely difficult. I usually work from home during this time so that helps. AND of course I write and write and write. It soothes my soul and is something I have to do. <BR/><BR/>I cannot believe you are adding me to YOUR blog roll. I am honored. <BR/><BR/>Stop by anytime. I WILL definitely write you sometime via email and please feel free to do the same anytime or even tell your sister she can. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again! You have made my night a much better one!Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17598928046422992165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7121474.post-37214634529481660762007-03-19T02:26:00.000-04:002007-03-19T02:26:00.000-04:00you go girl... I am sure this is the time of the d...you go girl... I am sure this is the time of the day when you take a deep breath and connect with others out there in the blogosphere. Noah is sleeping? Or maybe not as children with autism often have sleep disorders. Molly used to stay up all night long leaving me with only sporadic restful sleep.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your comment on my blog... you stop by anytime and write me if you want... my email addy is on my profile. I know how painful and lonely life as a mom to a child with this disability can be... <BR/><BR/>isn't buffalo the shit?<BR/><BR/>children with autism are a rare gift. you have to be pretty special to have one of your own... but you know that... deep down... you keep your head up... you are doing a fine job<BR/><BR/>I have been through much of it with my sister... the stares... the "why can't you control your child" looks during the temper tantrums...<BR/><BR/>Perhaps a post about my Molly is in order... we have such a good time when we are together. She is nonverbal for the most part but will laugh at a good joke when told one... or a fart... that really gets her going... LOL<BR/><BR/>you get an add to my blogroll... you do! and I will send my sis your blog addy as she is always looking for similarly challenged moms.Kindnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03424710039883911915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7121474.post-20124501035583781012007-03-19T01:59:00.000-04:002007-03-19T01:59:00.000-04:00Thank you kindness! Thank you for the very encour...Thank you kindness! Thank you for the very encouraging words about my writing and motherhood, so good to hear on a night when I feel extremely discouraged. <BR/><BR/>I started this diary to my son a short time after his diagnosis.....or right before. My plans were to eventually make it in book form. So that is the plan eventually. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment too. You are welcome anytime and I am glad you enjoy what you read!Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17598928046422992165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7121474.post-27491912032272710752007-03-19T01:52:00.000-04:002007-03-19T01:52:00.000-04:00I have wanted to post to your blog for a long time...I have wanted to post to your blog for a long time 'coz I know what you are going through. I apologize that this comment hasn't much to do with this post but I have niece who just turned 25... she is with autism as I like to to put ther person before the disability. She is not as high functioning as Noah so I love reading what you write. <BR/><BR/>You are a fantastic mom, a good writer... you should write a book.Kindnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03424710039883911915noreply@blogger.com
