We're Not Autistic Anymore...

Someone was talking to me the other day telling me about services they had found for autistic kids and my mind started to wander. I was nodding and smiling, because that is what I try to do with people who attempt to be helpful, but I wasn't really listening.

I wasn't listening because my kids aren't autistic anymore. Well, ok that's not really true but I am in this blissful place where I get to pretend they aren't. It is only a moment in time and next week there is a good chance I will be telling you tales about how my oldest decided to pluck all his pubic hair out with tweezers or that my middle kid will never understand the concept of (insert any abstract concept here) but for the moment none of that is true.

We are almost normal. (Shhhhhhhhh! Knock on wood, don't tell the Gods....SHhhhhhhhh!)
