A Crystal Ball

We are packed up and headed home after a wonderful adventure up north.

We stayed in a hotel which is a huge deal for us. No restaurants yet but it’s definitely are biggest goal.

We went to Adventure Zone and the Great Lakes Aquarium successfully! Swam three times. And visited Two Harbors, MN, where Jamie and I lived when Cooper was born 10 years ago.

So many memories wrapped up in one little city. Getting married. Buying a house. Becoming first time parents. An autism diagnosis. Moving to a bigger city for help for our son.

And now we have three boys and a little girl on the way. Life sure has a way of ebbing and flowing in the most beautiful way.

I used to pray for a glimpse into the future. Or a crystal ball. Anything that would tell me that life would get easier for our son. And that we would figure it all out. Autism. Nonverbal. Services. Supports. Navigating the community.

Here it is. The glimpse I needed. We made it.

Because you’re never alone in the struggles you face. And once you find your people, your allies, your village….all the challenges and struggles will seem just a little bit easier.
