Out of the Attic

God is the madwoman in the attic.
I'm camped out on the threshold with my journal, camera, and plenty of snacks.

this is what progress looks like

Back in May, kiddo wouldn't step off of the blanket in his bare feet. The grass was too much for him to feel with his little piggies. Today, he eagerly helps me remove his shoes and socks so he can run and explore our favorite spot by the lake.
In our bare feet.

Little N is On the Spectrum

On November 30, 2010 my son, Little N, was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The months leading up to that were a long process of evaluations and an early intervention program. Today, we continue to work with Little N to both give him the skills to navigate the world of neurotypical folks and to share in his unique exploration of the world as he meets it.
