About me
i married my first deep love when I was 22 and it was the best decision i’ve ever made. and i believe in a God who loves unfailingly.
our oldest, zoe, has autism and "nonverbal learning disorder" (a terribly named learning disability). so i belong to that group of parents of kids with learning differences or special needs- a group most people didn't sign up for- and desperately need support and this is the main reason i started to write. for me and others to know they're not alone.
when I turned 40 we packed up our lives, sold our house, and our cars and our stuff and moved our three kids to the middle of Africa.
this is our story- from my view.
ok- if you like what you read- follow along:)
please don't steal my stuff
