Swinging is very therapeutic for children on the spectrum. Here is Samuel in 2009
We're going on six years of adventuring on our autism journey.
Sometimes it feels like it has been forever. Other times it feels like it has barely started.
Today, in honor of World Autism Day, I decided to compile 10 blog posts I have written in the past about that wild and wondrous adventure.
The first through eighth post are about the recent past.
The ninth and tenth posts are about the long ago past, when I was still waiting for the official diagnosis and suffering through the first semester of Samuel's first grade year.
