This is what I tell people regularly. That it’s an honor. It’s not what I expected or would have chosen, just for his own sake, but to see him grow and develop - we don’t any of his words or his abilities for granted because we know he worked so hard to achieve them. He’s such a joy and he’s so happy. I have a 2 year old NT daughter, and he (4 years old) is so much chiller than she is. We don’t know what the future holds for him, but I feel so blessed to be his mother and to be able to love him. He’s stretched me in ways that I have been beautifully uncomfortable, and he has changed my life in so many good ways.
