About

A retired engineer turned homeschooling mom, navigating autism, inclusion, and the chaos of parenting with humor, honesty, and hard-earned wisdom.

Dear Reader

Thank you for sticking with me so far! As a mom of three amazing kids with autism, I’ll admit—there have been days when I’ve felt totally lost. Understanding what it all means and figuring out how best to support them is still a work in progress. However, there have been moments that have given me confidence that they’ll have the opportunity to reach their full potential. I’m hoping by sharing these, it might help make your own path a bit smoother too.

Messy, Beautiful, Real...

More Than Just a Mommy Blog

If you’ve landed here, you probably know the drill: sleepless nights, endless snacks, and losing your car keys (spoiler—they’re in the fridge). Now, add three kids on the autism spectrum, and you’ve got plot twists even M. Night Shyamalan couldn’t dream up.

Motherhood wasn’t on my “bucket list,” but life had other plans. Fast forward to today—three kids later—and here I am, navigating meltdowns (theirs and mine) and figuring out this beautiful chaos one snack at a time.

This blog is your VIP pass to our quirky, chaotic world. From budget hacks (because therapy bills don’t pay themselves) to DIY everything (yes, I’m their barber), I’ll share the laughs, the struggles, and the not-so-glamorous truth of being a life coach, therapist, and social butterfly—all while being an introvert.

Whether you’re a parent, a curious onlooker, or just here for the comic relief, welcome! Let’s embrace the wild, messy, and downright hilarious ride of raising extraordinary kids on the spectrum.

"Silence is golden. Unless you have kids, then silence is suspicious."
