Am I the only one?

Am I the only one?

 Just sayin'...

This mommy just got humbled in a great way!

So the T-Man took this picture, and I like it!

Who knew a 6 year old with autism could have such an artistic eye? Two quotes that come to mind and humble me are: "See the person, not the label" and "Different, not less." ~Temple Grandin. A great reminder and an AWESOME lesson! I can tell that he will never cease to amaze me and I am so thankful to God for blessing us with him!!! I pray I never fail you again my sweet boy, but since I am human I probably will, so I also pray it happens less and less and that you will forgive me when I do...

Choose joy,

Gee, thanks J-Man!

This is a conversation that happened between the J-Man and myself this morning...
 Me: Can I have a kiss?
Jackson: No
Me: Why?
J: Because I said so.
Me: (I ask him playfully) Do you think mommy is gross?
J: (without missing a beat), Yeah.
(before I feel crushed, I figure maybe he thinks ALL girls are gross, he IS only 4 years old after all. So I probe further...)
Me: Do you think kissing girls is gross?
J: No.
Me: But you think giving mommy a kiss is gross?
J: Yeah. Can I have some strawberry milk?
Me: You're lucky you're cute...(I walk away to get him a drink while mumbling under my breath).
Lesson: My middle son is grumpy in the morning when he doesn't have his morning cup of strawberry milk...and he thinks I'm gross!  LOL! LOL! 

Choose Joy,
Sonia
