Oh my goodness Jazzy! I am so sorry! I am almost in tears over not putting you in the card! I don't mean to complain, but it took me so long to get everyone's websites linked up, which I thought was important, so by the time I made SURE I had everyone who gave money to me, I breathed a sigh of relief! I just added a line from you!!!! So sorry!!!

So I guess that means he pretty much sealed the deal by killing it at the interview?

I just did what felt right, didn't think it was supposed to be about me. But I guess I need a little bit of info for new readers, so I added a few links to favorite posts at the bottom.

Thanks mama! It's all true, you helped me a lot.

And I agree, as a mom of a kid with Autism it is hard to keep "real life" friends, so cyber friends are sometimes all we've got!

Absolutely. Just had an episode today that had me thinking I need to always be home, but then remembered how much that will hurt him in the long run. I can't ALWAYS be here. I can be here a lot, but not always. It's still hard though. Are your 3 clingy? Are they mama's boys that cry when you aren't around?

That is so true Chris. You know what's funny, my husband has no trouble with having the boys "grow up." Your example of giving them the experience to do it on their own is how he lives each day with them. When I am not home they do the most amazing things, like dress themselves, play nicely, and not whine about anything. But I coddle them so much. Guess it's a mom thing.

Of course you were thinking the right answer because you are such an awesome veteran mama! So no, I am not ahead of you. I just got some good advice that I am trying to put into play.

Oh my goodness, thank you so much. I have been struggling with balance and wondering if blogging without getting to visit other enough is worth it. But your comment lets me know that at least writing is helpful.

And I am glad that even parents of neuro typical kids find my blog helpful and interesting.

I can't believe that you had such a similar story. It is so true that our kids needs us and we want to run to them always, but they DO need to become independent. I just wrote to another person who commented that God forbid something should happen to me, my son's life would be over. That is not OK. I need to take steps to make sure he can survive without my constant contact.

Yes, our little guys do seem to have a lot in common. It is hard, but I know it is right. Just today my husband said he cried when he got off the bus and I wasn't there. I instantly felt heartbroken and thought, that's it, I will be here every afternoon when he gets home. But that isn't going to help him adjust. God forbid something happens to me, his life would be over. I need to remember to love him, but make sure he is becoming somewhat independent too.

I like that, "holding on with one hand and pushing with the other." And really, it does get easier? That gives me such hope!
