On the 11th day of Christmas, Autism gave to me.....

This last week has been a huge week in personal growth for me. I feel like I have made such HUGE strides when it comes to myself and my outlook. I feel like I have been able to take a step back and see how much better the kids and I right now. A lot of this comes from learning to be content. I don't think I have ever been content in my life before. There was always something else I felt I needed/wanted, something I wanted to change about myself and so on. Right now I feel content with how everything is. There is nothing I can do about some of the things that are going on, but my emotions I can control to some degree. God has really gotten a hold of me and has helped me see how much I need this contenment to move forward with my life. I am feeling better and better and even though I wish things were different in certain aspects, I again, can't change them or others feelings. The kids are doing wonderful and B is really getting into the Christmas spirit. He asks if ho-ho has come, EVERY MORNING, so we are slowly starting to realize that Christmas is still quit a few nights sleep away, but I am loving the fact that he is so into all the traditions that I remember as a kid. The next 11 days are going to be so much fun! I can't wait:)
