What a special moment for grandma! So promising 😊 I think about you daily and hope that you can be surrounded by friends and loved ones on the 9th. I’m sure that the day will be tough and I hope you won’t be alone
Oh my goodness..... Thomas....that's wonderful..... Like I mentioned several times before I get the sense that Thomas is going to make a giant break through. God bless You go ahead and cry; let it all out.
I absolutely love the end of this vlog! How special to see you hanging with Thomas! I think it’s hard for those without children with autism to understand what it’s like to do this seemly normal activities with T Bone. I love how he looks up at you. He’s so so cute!! 💕💕
You are strong you are beautiful and your doing the best you can for you and your son remember how wonderful you are and look how amazing your little man is ❤️ I’m so proud of you and you have my support forever mare💕
You are so right this is not a set back. You are doing so well, as you say you expected it and there really is nothing you can do to prevent it. Talking about it is the MOST helpful, NEVER apologize for that. Such great news that Thomas said "I love you" to your mum I'm sure she was thrilled and overwhelmed. Try to keep in mind the progress you and Thomas have made in the last year and how much you are loved. You will get through this❤❤ Love You!!!
Grief attacks...darn things hit without warning. Do whatever you need to do to get through this. You're having sad times cushioned with joyous times with Thomas....so wonderful that he is starting to communicate. Blessings to you both, and to your amazing, supportive friends.
Aaaah, Thomas said "I love you"!!!! My dear girl, you are not an inspiration because you have all the answers, you're an inspiration because you are a real person - with complicated, confusing, inconvenient emotions, like the rest of us. Thank you for sharing what you do and please be as understanding with yourself, as you would be with literally anyone else. xo ... Aaaah, Thomas said "I love you"!!!!!!!
JRS JRS Way to go Thomas. Mare always thinking of you, you are an amazing person and I love your videos they are very inspiring. Hope the days get better for you. Hang in there one day at a time. Hugs.
I don't feel like people have any intent to make you feel stupid when they say, "obviously you are upset or of course you are upset". In most cases they are likely just saying hey girl, give yourself a break, this is normal, you are only human, it's part of grief and it's ok to release it. I've had those words said to me many times but always felt like it came from a good place. So, just something to consider. Loved hearing about Thomas and his continued progress with language. Your mom must still have a smile on her face.😊
As far as driving in sandals, my daughter had a similar situation while driving in LA when her sandal got stuck under the gas pedal. Literally stuck. She blew through an intersection before she was able to dislodge the sandal and stop the car. Fortunately, no one was hurt. Lesson learned and now it’s bare feet while driving on sandal days. P. S. Put the shoes on the passengers side floor! Hugs to you.
Driving in sandals is illegal i'm pretty sure! Anything without a back I believe- an insurance agency said it would be void if you were wearing sandals and was in an accident because they are super dangerous while driving like you experienced! I keep a set of shoes in my car for this reason...quick change into Toms while I drive. takes 2 seconds. BIG HUGS TO THOMAS!!!!!! AHHHHH
it’s not easy, but your doing great. it’s going to come in waves. some days are going to be better then others. just know that we’re here for you and Thomas is always going to be there for you.
What a great Mother’s Day gift for you and your Mom! Such amazing progress for Thomas. So happy for you.
PS so sweet you and Thomas reading together; what a blessing he is! I bet there will be more amazing things coming up for him!!

This is random but do you find that diffuser a bit noisy? Or is that how it is supposdd to be....just asking because i bought the same one!
I never drive in sandals-sneakers only. I legit change my footwear in and out of the car. Thomas is just thriving, just like his mom. Hugs.
