The ones that have special challenges are hard and sometimes at certain times in their life it is even harder. A very wise and loved friend of mine once told me, never give up and never quit praying for them. As I have said about what I am dealing with . . Heavenly Father never gives us more then we can handle. He knows us better then we even know ourselves. Especially with our chilren, they are His and He sends them to the place where they have the best chance. You are a good Mom and never forget that your home is where Heavenly Father thinks is the best for them. Love you and you are in my prayers.Sweet Grandma Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16134699355032847653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6932739895935097033.post-4231398592509897292009-11-11T08:27:55.492-07:002009-11-11T08:27:55.492-07:00You don't know me, but I found your blog.

Then he does something totally socially inappropriate like getting right in other kids faces or having so much anxiety in front of other kids that he just freaks out and I'm reminded this is "not normal." I don't know what normal really is, but Asperger's definately presents some unique challenges. Your post made me realize once again that this will be an issue for the rest of his life, but we Mom's will keep trying to help our kids. You sound like a great Mom. Hang in there. -CarlyJT, Carly, Boston, Jocelyn and Snuggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17162076588586898679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6932739895935097033.post-6028879777759101802009-11-10T12:42:20.570-07:002009-11-10T12:42:20.570-07:00Crystal, I've always thought this, and this po...Crystal, I've always thought this, and this post makes me think it all over again. You are an incredible mother. Incredible. A lot of parents think they are great moms, but I think you are better. It's easy to be a good mom when your children don't have struggles to overcome. I read other people's blogs that are complaining about little things (dumb things!) and you post something like this. It's insightful. You are doing such a great job, and I hope you get the fighting with the other children resolved soon. I know you will think of something. I'm glad to be able to read your blog and know what a self-less person you are, always thinking of others and trying to make every day count for your little boys. You are such a great mom.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16702812111824342807noreply@blogger.com
