Look at this face 🥰. I took this picture of Lucas 2 years ago today in the waiting room of the neurologist’s office right before he received his autism diagnosis. It brings me back to such a confusing period in our lives. It was a culmination of nine months of unheard worries and indescribable angst, of failed MCHAT tests and late nights of research on doctor google. I knew we were getting this diagnosis, and I also wished more than anything that I was wrong. We were so scared of autism. No one wants their child to struggle through life and we didn’t know, and still don’t, what this diagnosis means for Lucas’ future. We continue to trust the process, to fight daily and above all to love him fiercely. He was before then, on this day, and still is today the same amazing little boy we brought into this world. The diagnosis never changed that❤️ #autism #autismo #autismawareness #autismacceptance #nonverbal #nonverbalautism #preverbal #preverbalautism #sensoryprocessingdisorder #sensoryprocessing #autismmom #autismfamily #autismparenting #autismparents #specialneedsmom #specialneedsparenting #specialneedsparents #specialneedsfamily #neurologist #pediatricneurologist #diagnosis #asddiagnosis #diagnosisday #thisisautism

I try not too stress too much about Halloween. I don’t know how much of it Lucas understands and he hasn’t yet chosen his own costume. We usually pull the kids on the wagon and help him to a few houses to trick or treat,although he prefers to ride. This year we went out later than planned, hadn’t had dinner, and it was very hot. I don’t think any of those things helped but he wasn’t really feeling any of it. We couldn’t get the glasses on (that was ambitious, I admit!) but he kept the hat on for a while, so I’m counting that as a win! Isn’t he the cutest Smee? #choosejoy #nevergiveup #autism #autismo #autismacceptance #autismawareness #autismfamily #autismom #autismparenting #specialneeds #specialneedsparenting #specialneedsmom #sensoryprocessingdisorder #sensoryprocessing #halloween #smee
