Granny's gone and done it again

theres all kinds of miracles. Adoption, dogs that need you. ect.... Personally I dint think I was meant to be a mom. Im not good at it and have been doing it for 49 years now. Im frankly pretty tired. My son is autistic.
You were meant to have them. I always think about how God knew how to send certain children to certain people. I'm pretty sure I would not have been patient enough to handle a child with Autism. What do you think about having had a child with Spina Bifida? You practically live in hospitals the first years..into the teens. I was able to do that back then. Even got involved with social awareness for Spina Bifida. It wasn't real well known back then. Got the local newspaper aware. They did an article on him for several years in a row for October..Spina Bifida month, which I also had something to do with that coming about. Goodness, as I write this down, I can't believe I was so able back in the day compared to how I am doing now. He's on his own now. Doing pretty good. I know now that he's low on the spectrum of Autism. I can see that now. He has a hard time showing his emotions. That's ok. He does tell me he loves me once in a great while. :) Mostly in messenger. I probably wouldn't have known if not for Austin pointing out certain things. As you know, Austin does therapy and works with Autistic teens. Hard work! These boys are unreal .. the things he tells me. He has to watch a few, none stop all day. Has had to put a hold on some at times..with the help of another. He gets cussed at off and on all day. Like I've said before, he says it's rewarding to see some of them have the lightbulb moment and start using the tools he teaches. Ok. The end. 🤣
 
Just took this from my front window.

thank you for that Cynthia. I just get tired sometimes. You did a remarkable job.
Not slow for me
I hope I don't sound like I was bragging. I just started to remember. Wow. We do slow down in our old age. Wish I still had that kind of energy. Today..I drove to what I call liro Wally World. A neighborhood Walmart. Groceries only. I've been feeling better the last few days! I watered today too. I'm not quite back to what the "old" good was, but better! Austin tells me that I wear myself out on better days..to take it easy. I wanted to do more, but remembered what he said.
