I am just a single mama to an amazing, spunky, incredible daughter, who in the internet sphere we'll call A, who also happens to have Autism Spectrum Disorder. Raising a little human in this big, wide world is hard for anyone! Parenting is hard! But when you add a little sprinkle of nuerodivergence to the table, and to be honest, we both have a little sprinkle of nuerodivergence (adult diagnosed ADHD for the win!), it is all the more complicated.
Through this crazy journey, though, I've picked up a thing or two, and I am currently studying Marriage and Family Studies at BYU-Idaho, with the hopes to go onto becoming a therapist specializing in families with special needs children. That said, I hope you find some value in reading through my thoughts. I don't have all the answers, and I will absolutely be referencing some amazing, intelligent and much more knowledgeable than me people for you to research on your own. But I hope you stick around, take a deep breath and know that, together, we got this 💪🏻
