My two children both have Aspergers, which as you know is on the spectrum. I grew up in MS but spent the last year in TN. We go to TN once a month for all our Doctors and I have lots of resources there. I am also a member of an online list serve ASD-MS. It also has people on it from TN. I have a blog as well and use it to keep family up to date on the kids, but also post for puzzles once a month. As a mom with kids on the spectrum I know what you are going through. Would love to chat or support you in any way I can.

Thank you so much for the encouragement and I would LOVE to compare notes about a special needs ministry! It's such a blessing! I just can NOT tell you what awesome things the Lord is doing and WILL do through your ministry there! It's really wonderful and God will bless your efforts!<BR/>PLEASE stay in touch! My new blog will be just for special needs so check it out too! <BR/>Bless you mom! I fully believe that God knows who can deal with the differences in our children and who can (somehow!) handle the hard days! Hang in there and hang on to Jesus!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15200043966418016288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1760284705417192775.post-73144395325836768872008-06-23T19:05:00.000-07:002008-06-23T19:05:00.000-07:00YAY for sweet friends!!

From what you are describing with Evan, this child was much more severely autistic. But it is something that is close to my heart since I work with so many children. I will definitely be donating to the walk and I think Megan and her two best friends are just wonderful, sweet girls!! And you are an amazing mom for being so diligent and loving and hopeful for the future. Evan is blessed to have you!! Have a great day! :)Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02020825680212161958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1760284705417192775.post-12158714742115031462008-06-23T05:13:00.000-07:002008-06-23T05:13:00.000-07:00That is such an awesome thing!
