I am not fragile. I am tired, overstimulated, under-supported — and still standing. What I’ve survived might kill you, and I did it while raising children who need more of me than I sometimes have to give.

Blue sky, green grass, and a little blob of yellow starting off a child’s painting.
Child’s painting of a yellow house with a red roof, brown door, gray window, green grass, blue sky, and a yellow sun.
Evening with the youngest (:

So nonfiction and I are my close friends. But lately, I’ve found some books that have caught my eye. Parenting is hard enough …. But maybe I can find a couple of tips to make life easier?🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️

It’s gotten SO BAD. My bedroom is separated from the living room by 1 door and even when I leave the door open she says I’m too far!!!! I COULD TOSS A PAPER BALL AND STILL REACH HER!!! I’M GOING INSANE!!! I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A SOLITARY CREATURE!!!!

The wind is fierce. We have a storm heading our way, and my youngest baby is on her first date. I'm trying not to freak out. I'm going to watch Legally Blonde to distract me. I've honestly never seen it, but it seems like a nice distraction. #autisticmom
This looks great! #neurodiversity #autisticmom #disabledmom
& of course I’m working to teach my kids appropriate volume and manners. But I’ve accepted that I have a legitimate sound sensitivity and it’s okay for me to help myself be more comfortable. When I’m more comfortable, I’m a better mom. #actuallyautistic #autisticparent #autisticmom
My baby cries with tears now, and that’s the hardest thing I’ve ever had to witness as a new parent.
