Elliott and Emmett have been making Play-Doh creations all day long.  For some reason they began focusing on Phineas and Ferb.  The result was what you see below.  Pretty creative.......

The Whole Truth I've decided that I'm going to share the things that are currently weighing on my.  I welcome your thoughts but please keep any negative comments to yourself. Until you've walked even half a mile in my shoes, you're not in a position to judge.  Sharing these things is not easy to do.  I'm not proud of how we're struggling but at the same time I am.  The fact that we are struggling means we're still around and that is something I'm quite proud of. Mine is far from the only family struggling. My hope is that I can sorta purge and walk away feeling a bit lighter and less burdened. This is meant to provide you all with a bit more access into our lives and help…

Elliott and Emmett are both becoming hurt, angry and resentful of Gavin.  They have begun to take notice of the fact that Gavin is spending more and more time with Sonic and the rest of the crew.  They are upset because they are feeling slighted and left out because in their eyes, Gavin is choosing Sonic over them.  Tensions are mounting and I'm not sure how to handle this.  It's not really Gavin's fault and the boys have a right to be upset at the same time.  Lizze is sick in bed and I feel like I'm crumbling under all the pressure. Everyone is confused and upset and I honestly don't  know what to do.  This site is managed almost exclusively via WordPress for Android. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect…

Unfortunately, Lizze is sick again today and that means nothing with will get done.  I don't know how long she'll be down but as long as she is, I'll be flying solo. It's nothing I can't handle.  I mean, Gavin's only in the middle of a psychotic break and I have laundry list of things that need to get done.  I'm just slightly stressed out at the moment. Please keep Lizze in your thoughts and prayers.

I was laying down on the couch writing and Emmett climbed on top of me and shoved a handful of Play-Doh into my shirt pocket before running off to play. Is that Play-Doh in my pocket? Yes. Yes it is.

The boys got up and the battle for breakfast began. For the first time in a long time, Elliott was actually easy to feed. Gavin's always easy to feed because he eats just about everything and he's open to trying new foods. Today's battle was with Emmett.  He had a huge meltdown over breakfast.  I made him three different things before finding something that we was willing to eat. My brain is already straining from all the screaming it endured this morning.  My hope is to recover what's left of the morning and ride that into a decent afternoon.  This site is managed almost exclusively via WordPress for Android. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired Visit the My Autism Help Forums To reach me via email,…

A new academic study shows that official Government advice that tells parents how to raise their children should be disregarded as it is corrosive and harmful. San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/05/2013 -- A new study has concluded that the positive…

Lizze and I wanted to get the boys out of the house for awhile last night.  We took them for an ice cream cone and then to the playground. Everyone had a ton of fun. Gavin and Elliott both did really well.  Emmett on the other hand has no fear and is desperately sensory seeking.  He's hanging upside down, climbing things that aren't meant to be climbed and doing other things that are incompatible with his safety and my blood pressure.  He really stressed out my ticker and I swear I almost stroked out.  However, he was very happy and for the most part, very in control of his body.  The things he was doing were things I would have done or rather did do as a child.  I just…
