As a fellow autism mama this is the DREAM!!! There is nothing like someone seeing our children and embracing who they are.

This brought tears to my eyes and a smile to my face.

Ahhh Wynne - thanks for giving me a glimpse into your world and for having the courage to be so vulnerable. You’ve greatly widened my view! Keep writing, keep sharing - I really believe there will be a ripple effect. Proud of you!!

Alll the tears!!! I’ve had several situations where when I’ve shared she’s on the spectrum it’s this strange defensiveness where they continue to be rude to my child (only adults). It’s infuriating. I love how this played out and am constantly torn on which response to have.
