I’ve been noticing a behavioral change in Gavin and I feel comfortable saying that it began during COVID lockdown. I’ve stated that Gavin’s been doing really well and that’s absolutely the case. What I’m writing about today is more annoying, disruptive, and a bit curious than anything else. Here’s what’s happening. Gavin startles very easily …

It’s pretty bad but thank God no one was hurt
My thoughts are scattered. As a result of tonight’s events, my stress level and worry are at all time highs. It’s probably best if I just start at the beginning because I’m sorta processing all this in real time. My feeling are still raw and I’m unsure of what’s going to happen. Pictures are on …

Guy Time at Quail Hollow with my #Autistic kids
Lizze was still in a bad place yesterday. She was in so much pain, she could barely move. Unfortunately, that put a dent in our plans to take the boys hiking at Quail Hollow. We ended up having Lizze go back to bed to get some rest, while I took the boys on my own. …

Hiking at @StarkParks Sippo Lake with our #Autistic kids
I’m way behind on this particular post because it’s been a long week. That being said, I wanted to share pictures from our hike at Stark Parks Sippo Lake. We planned this day trip the night before and it was only about a twenty-minute drive from our house. This particular hike was a bit less …
