There's something so easy and natural about me and my oldest. We are kindred spirits and know each other so well. He is one of the sweetest boy's you'll ever meet and anyone who meets him says the same thing. Such a caring, kind, polite sweet spirit he is.

One day not too long ago I didn’t know if my son would ever speak. One day not too long ago I didn’t know if he’d like hugs, kisses and being tickled. One day not too long ago I didn’t know if he’d ever be nice to his brother and become friends with him or anyone else for that matter. One day not too long ago I wasn’t sure if he’d be able to handle water bring poured over his face, hearing loud noises or many of the other sensory issues he struggled with. In fact, one day not too long ago I didn’t know if he’d be diagnosed with the big A word that no parent wants to hear.

Getting my son healthy has been so difficult and as soon as I think I’ve got it all figured out something happens and I realize I don’t. Oh how I wish he would have been born healthy and didn’t have to struggle the way he does. But that isn’t our reality so I must do whatever I can to help him.

I know I say this a lot — but if you knew my son even just a year ago you'd truly understand how big it is that he can speak in sentences…let alone sing a song!

This isn’t the first time I’ve blogged about Jenny McCarthy and I highly doubt it’ll be the last. I can admit that I was never a big fan of her work or comedy. But getting to know her for her struggle with her son’s Autism, getting him healthy and now being heavily involved and outspoken about vaccines has won me over.

Nicky has gone from being nearly mute this time last year, to only 10 words 6 months ago, to now over 100 and using full sentences!
He began to show improvement in the summer after I put him on the Candida diet, some of it was just time, a lot is all the work I’ve been doing with him, and no doubt the school’s therapy has a good role to play in this success too!

If you were on the live Mom's Morning Show this morning you heard me share that my N man talked all last week about riding the bus. That's about all he could talk about. Even with his limited speech it was clear he wanted to ride the bus home.

N man had a good day at therapy today. He didn’t cry this time! He’s done well with being left for the most part. I haven’t gotten any reports that he hasn’t adjusted well or that he isn’t doing well, so things are better than I expected.

My baby big boy had his very first day of therapy at the school today. He did quite well after I left him. Before hand was another story. I'm not quite sure what made him scared. I suspect it was the overload of children all around that made him nervous. He held onto me, cried, kept saying "mama", and wouldn't go into his classroom.

I’m drained. I’m annoyed. I’m ready for bed. Why? Because I’ve just tried to record a video blog more times than I can remember, but one thing after another kept ruining it so I’ll just write this post. ;–)
