http://lifewithmybutters.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Butters was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome when he was 3.5 then hydrocephalus at 5. Here I talk about the high's, low's, challenges and and all the fun things that happen in between.

With the end of my pregnancy things just got crazy and I ended up just posting bits and pieces to facebook and twitter rather than sitting down to actually write. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
