Go follow Three Little Birds-Raising Kids On The Autism Spectrum 💙💙 💪🏾

I think as humans, we tend to wonder “why” a lot.

Five years ago our family had one vehicle.

I would have to drive three young children almost an hour to and from Tampa to get my husband to work and back home.

Our morning started at 4:30 am.

Packing all of the things for Lilliana’s and Landon’s day. Getting together food, drinks and snacks for Finn who was only one. Pillows and blankets because they would undoubtedly have to sleep in good ole’ Max, our Blue Jeep Liberty on the way to catch up on their zzzz’s. Grabbing one of Lilliana’s sleep masks from her growing collection.

All five of us packed in there like sardines.

Those were hard days.

Finn and I were in that car at least six hours a day. After dropping Matt off I would then drive to Landon’s VPK, Lilliana’s elementary school, and then run errands, go back home.

Landon only did half days of preschool so I would have to turn around and pick him up mid day. Then Lilliana again. After school she had activities so it was a lot of driving and waiting with the two boys.

Most nights we had to go get their dad around 9pm-10pm because he would work overtime. We would get home 10:30pm-11:00pm every night and have to wake up and so it all over again.

Sometimes Finn would fall asleep in the car on the way to pick up Matt and then he would be up all night.

He stopped sleeping In general at 14 months and there would be many days that I would have to do all of that driving on no sleep because I stayed up with him until 4am.

I remember as he turned two he was losing engagement.

When he was diagnosed with autism I struggled to find the why.

I even went through a large period where I blamed myself.

I thought perhaps all those hours stuck in the car didn’t give him enough time with me, to play, learn and develop skills.

My other two kids never had to sit in a car like that for hours when they were young.

I would analyze our days.

When we came home, did I interact enough with him?

Did he get enough floor time?

Were the trips to the park and pool enough physical exercise for him?

Did I talk to him enough when we had to go grocery shopping or run an errand?

What about while he was in the car, sitting in the back in his car seat, facing the opposite way?

I wasn’t a “refrigerator mom” by any means, I knew that, but was I present enough for him due to our circumstances?

I silently wondered for years if any of that affected his brain.

Did he go into his own world, into his own head, regress because he didn’t get enough interaction and stimulation?

I now know so much more about autism and understand that it wasn’t any of those things.

But if you’re out there struggling with the why, I’m telling you today to release that blame.

It wasn’t you.

Anything you did during pregnancy.

Or after.

It wasn’t because of your circumstances whatever they were.

My son is exactly who he is supposed to be.

All of my kids are.

Looking for the “why” for so long made me think differently, lose precious time.

As if there was some cause or even fix..if I only had that answer.

Hanging on to that notion that we are to blame will prevent us from seeing the beauty in all that our kids have to teach us.

Even if it’s genetics..we have no control or say.

Autism is different not less.

Our situation was different back then, not less.

Yes it was difficult, more work.

But I see this picture and I see the beauty in the hard.

I see two beautiful, healthy kids. Another one behind her in the car seat.

I see a mom who worked hard daily to give those kids everything she could. They were fed, clothed, educated and played with.

Although you don’t see him..there was a dad at work, on the phones for endless hours with customers, providing for his family day and night.

There was a family of five who spent mornings together getting breakfast on the go, a husband and wife who would hold hands and have conversations over early morning coffee before drop off.

And they were all together in the evening on the drive home, telling each other about their day.

Hard but better?

Good but different?

It’s all about perspective.

It’s all about choosing to live with grace and gratitude.

Every day is like that.

Especially with special needs parenting.

Own your feelings. Don’t let them own you.

Choose today how you will go through life, how you will look at your circumstances.

Half full or half empty?

Today I will choose to be grateful for all that I have and all of the valuable lessons I’ve been taught throughout this journey.

Living with one vehicle taught me how to have gratitude for a second.

Having a child that lost his voice, taught me to have gratitude for every word spoken.

No “Mommy” or “I love you” is ever taken for granted here.

Every moment of communication verbal or otherwise, teaches me to pay attention to details, things in life I surely wasn’t noticing before my son’s diagnosis.

My kids teach the world the importance of kindness, acceptance and inclusion. I’ve seen more good people in this life than ignorance.

I have been blessed to be surrounded by the most amazing human beings who will fight for my kids or who will sit in the dark with me.

I learned to persevere and that I am stronger than I could have ever imagined.

Maybe the “why” is about life in general...

If we are living we should be learning?

Look closely to see what your children could be showing you with the things they don’t or can’t say.

There is so much wonder in their world.

If we are breathing we should be grateful for the oxygen, that much I know.

Even if that’s the only thing you can find in the day to have gratitude for.

If we have a working body, we should be grateful that it can do hard work...get moving.

Try waking up everyday and looking for ways to be grateful for the things life is giving you, not taking away, even if it’s a small thing.

You’ll start seeing the miracles in each and every day I promise.

Don’t let the “why” in your life be about things you can’t change or the circumstances life has given you.

Why us?

Why him/her?

Why autism?

Let go of that “why”.

Don’t let it consume you anymore.

Find a different type of “why” to focus on.

Let your “why” be the reason you choose to live life to the fullest in the best way you can, with the child you have who was meant to be exactly who they are.
