I am a 34 year old mother of 2 wonderful boys. I have Zachary, who has autism, he is 4 years 9 months old, and I have Ty, who is 9 months old and so far so good. They are exactly 4 years and 3 days apart in age. My boys are my life. They are my joy, job, and insanity...lol. If I tend to babble on and on about them at any time it is because they are always with me in whatever I do.

Above statement is still true...now I am updating. Zach is now 5 and Tyler is 1. Zach is blossoming beyond my imagination. He is my proof to the world that God can heal. Just today he was playing a game that gave you a sequence of numbers (reads it out then erases it) then asks you to repeat it....the highest it goes is a 16 digit sequence....Zach mastered it immediately!!!!! I know that I am bragging but he amazes me with something everyday.

Tyler is wonderfully rotten!!! So far no signs of autism or related disorders. He has allergies to eggs and pork (did you know that if something doesn't have eggs in it most likely you will find pork???). He has to be hospitalized to get his MMR. But we are blessed. We are now eating much healthier. God works in mysterious ways!! Tyler is adorable...He can drive a saint crazy and make them laugh at the same time. He is most definately a clown. We love him to pieces!!!

Having Tyler in our home has had an awesome effect on Zachary. Zach has come out so much socially it is amazing. He not only plays with his peers now....he knows how and does initiate play with them!!!! I know only you auti\aspie moms can understand the significance of this and hope that you rejoice with us!!

Zach has also been showing some big improvements in imaginative play. He has been recreating (with some hilarious adlibs) some of his favorite shows and bits from movies. He will act like animals now or a favorite character. My baby is my hero.
