My son was diagnosed with Autism at age 2. Ten years in and I've learned how complex Autism truly is. This is our version. Challenging, crazy and beautiful.

Mac N Cheese with a fork!
It has been far too long since I've posted and it's not due to a lack of developments... just lack of time and/or motivation, I suppose. So I have lots to catch up on but for now I'm excited about one very small, very hard-earned step. B used a fork to eat Mac N Cheese! I looked back at the blog and it has been close to FOUR months since we decided he needed to use utensils for his mac n cheese. Mind you, I haven't been presenting it on a daily basis but there have been lots of opportunities and he waited it out for FOUR months!! I got him to take 1 bite last week and today, he ate half with his fork and half with his preferred hands. That's one small bite for B... one giant LEAP for mom! I have high hopes for expanding his diet going forward.
