It’s been a little while since my last post, and life has certainly kept me on my toes, especially as I continue my journey through grad school. The transitions for our youngest neurodivergent adult haven’t always been smooth, but we're making progress! We’ve assembled a fantastic team to support him in achieving his mental health, emotional well-being, and essential adulting milestones. So far, he’s learned how to cook a variety of delicious meals, write his first check, explore local attractions in our neighborhood, and even navigate an Uber ride with a caregiver by his side (of course!). We're gradually working on adding even more milestones and vital adulting skills. It’s been a challenge at times, but it’s all part of helping him become more independent and confident as he navigates the world around him, with the right support in place for the long run. 

May is such a special month for our family! We get to celebrate our wedding anniversary (26 wonderful years!) and three birthdays—my hubby, our daughter, and grandma. We feel so grateful for every single day and are truly blessed beyond measure. We’re thanking God for all the wins and even for the challenges that come with raising a special needs adult child in this ever-changing world. No matter what, we keep advocating and doing everything we can to help. I really hope you all are doing well and finding ways to stick to your budget with these rising prices. We’re definitely trying to get creative with our shopping, especially when it comes to eggs and dairy—LOL! 

On that note, I wish you a fantastic rest of your week and encourage you to stay well!
