On a serious note..... I've been gone so much this summer I'm all mixed up.
Chase & Brooke start school next week and I hope that I can get back to a schedule.
Would you like a laugh?
Last week I discovered the show Parenthood and that it dealt with a child with Aspergers. So I became obsessed with watching every episode before season two begins. I got so hooked that I watched all 13 episodes in four days. How? .... with Hulu on my laptop.
So, can you see me watching TV in bed on my laptop every night from 11 to 1 or 2am? Yep, that's me.
On my 2nd night watching it I pulled the laptop up closer to get a better look at something and the top came down and whacked me on the nose....yes I had tears come to my eyes!! It's still a little sore but I'm okay.
If you have a child with Aspergers or know someone that does. Watch just one episode of Parenthood and you'll see you're not alone!! It's a wonderful show and the humor is really good too.
See ya!

Parenthood is the loveliest of shows. : ) I adore it and cannot wait for season 2 in a month. I agree that they realistically portray how having an autistic child can affect everyday family life.
Hi Angie,
I've been meaning to ask you if you had a child with Asperger's. I am a SU demonstrator in Utah and I have an 11 yr old son with Asperger's as well. I can really relate to you. He is starting to recognize how different he is and is struggling with his self esteem. Every day I recommit myself to try and build him up, but so many times he takes everything we try and do for him "the wrong way" and gets upset. I am trying to learn everything I can because I want him to succeed and fit in the best that he can...you know what I mean. Thanks for the tip. I'll have to watch that show now. ~Amy
I also love Parenthood. We have a 10 year old grandson with Aspergers and he's making great progress. Our daughter is a bit worried about when puberty sets in but for now he's doing great. I love your site Angie and look forward to the 12 days of Halloween! Char
