Introducing me and Ethan...

[ethansmom1221]

Just joined this group - I am Toni and my son Ethan is 8 years old.  Diagnosed at 2 - non verbal until 5 - could work most electronic devices at 2.  I have two daughters, Alicia (14) and Hannah (10).  I've been married 17 years to Vance.  We are a pretty organized tag team family - we are very team/family oriented - helping each other.  My girls have alot of love for their brother.

I have learned so much about parenting, life, spirituality raising my son.  Ethan is a gift - not a burden.  There is ALOT of entertainment value in raising a special child - you just have to look.

Hi and welcome! I have 3 boys on the spectrum and you are right, there is a lot of fun in raising our kids :). A lot of frustration too sometimes but well worth it! Never a dull moment, that's for sure :)
