I had one of those days today!

You wake up with the best of intentions but the day completely falls apart. It was one of those days where I literally had to drive off by myself and pray.

I prayed to the dear Lord for:
Patience to get through another day
Hope that things will get better
Peace about our lives
Humor to laugh when I feel like crying
Guidance when I feel like my life is falling apart
Will and wishing I knew what he was thinking sometimes
Reagan and all he endures just because he is the little brother
Nick who sees the world in a different way when I can't
My mom whom I called to just let loose and then apologized because I do that sometimes.

Autism is difficult. I don't write in my blog about it often. More often then not it is challenging. You love your children so much and you always want to do whatever you can to make their lives easier. There are days, hours, weeks, months, minutes that I wish I knew what Will wanted or how I could make his life easier. Autism is difficult but I thank God everyday that he entrusted Will to us. I pray that everyday we do the best job ever at raising him in a faith-filled home that is surrounded by love.

My family matters most. They are number one on my list and although the day didn't go at all as planned, that's okay. We were together and that was all that mattered!
