It’s All Relative!

So my niece was talking about the longevity of her relationship with her boyfriend. “We’ve been together for 19 months.”

I thought I’d tease her. “Well, 19 months is a drop in the bucket compared to 20 years of marriage,” I beamed.
Little did I know that my mother was behind me and laughed. “Well, 20 years is nothing compared to 50 years of marriage.”
Moral of the story: there’s always a bigger and better fish than you lurking… Be humble!

I am: a) happily married for over 27 years; b) mom to five boys, three diagnosed with autism; c) a home schooling mom; and d) self-employed as a piano teacher. There is no trace of autism on my side or my husband's side of the family tree. Until nine years ago, my youngest four all had disabilities, the youngest three with autism. Five years ago my youngest did not "qualify" for the autism label, rendering him "recovered". My second oldest also "tested" out of his speech delay. My husband and I attribute these successes to the care of many family members and therapists, change in diets, not following mainstream medicine yet listening to medical advice, doing our own research, and most importantly, lots of prayer.
