And the Winners Are...

I’ve been writing this blog for almost four years now, and I’ve come a long way from the days where I swore my husband made up the word “blogosphere” just to tease me. It’s been a great source of comfort to me to write about our lives with the boys, has often clarified conflicts for me, or reminded me how much progress each of my sons has made.

There was a time in the initial days I didn’t think I’d have enough to say to write one (that little thought was quickly disproved), and on most days, the writing has been a joy. My wish is that my words have brought comfort, hope, and perhaps a new perspective on autism to both my readers at Patch, and on my blog.

          At the very least, I hope on occasion I’ve made you laugh.

          Last week I had the good fortune of being chosen as one of 2013’s Top Ten Inspiring and Informative Blogs by Autism Speaks, an honor which led me to ponder what I believe my top posts are for our soon to be passing year. I’ve realized I need to look at my “best of” every December, as it’s wonderful to see how far we’ve come both as individuals and as a family in the quick passing of twelve months. I’ve selected my top five for you (I’ve saved the best for last), and hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them.

          As always, I want to say a huge thank-you to my readers, and wish all of you a wonderful holiday season and a happy new year!
