Itโs already miserable hot in North Carolina. I finally have an excuse to sit in the baby pool.
Having another baby at almost 40 has been the greatest gift for all of us. Itโs taught our older (autistic) son patience and now he has a forever best friend!
Every heartbreak and loss brought us here. I am so incredibly blessed to have my boys!
My 14-year-old AU sonโs teacher just texted me that he was bouncing too aggressively on an exercise ball and popped it, traumatizing all the surrounding children.
Never a dull moment.
Some news I'm excited to share... I'm now represented by @janinele.bsky.social at JLLA! ๐
She checked all the boxes for me as an agent, and I'm absolutely thrilled to have her in my corner as we begin this next chapter together.
The right agent is worth waiting for.
2 months already! ๐ฉต๐
4 months of laughter and love ๐ฉท This new little guy has really inspired me to dive back into writing, head first!
Feeling so loved and blessed ๐๐
Itโs Autism Awareness Day. This kid is pure joy and has completely shaped the way I see the world. Heโs magic, and we could all use a little more of that right now.
First grade me really said: โMinimal detail. Maximum storytelling.โ
