    I went through a funk at the beginning of this school year and finally, the air is starting to clear. It’s just that with both kids in school all day I had no idea what I wanted to do with myself. Actually, loo…
  • School is Off and Running

    In perfect Wolfie fashion to begin the school year, the first two days were awesome. Not much to say from him about those two except “Not very many people recognize me” which I took to be some kind of smal…

  • Defeated

    From: Happy Aspies “I feel like such a failure,” Wolfie said to me this afternoon, crying giant tears following a meltdown after school. It is in these moments that I feel like I have failed him. What am I doing sendi…
