My life in the Aspergers lane. Chaz, my 10 year old was diagnosed with Aspergers when he was 5 years old. It explained a lot but I have so much more to learn to help my son. Seeking answers and documenting my journey here. Be the sunshine for your child when they come home with dark clouds hanging over them. Be the rainbow that brings hope by speaking up for them. "Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning." Psalm 30:5
*Encouragement is the best medicine to give someone. If I were to pick any gift to have in helping others, that would be the one*

Chaz Finds A Friend
I said before that it's hard for Chaz to really find a friend. Well, he met one. On my other blog, Meet Virginia, I posted about a skating party we went to. Melanie, Dexter's mom, called me to tell me about the party. We were talking about schooling and she just happens to tell me that Dexter is Aspergers. "He's what?" She said it again. "You're kidding me!" So Dexter and Chaz (Chaz is in the black shirt, blonde hair in pic) found each other. I couldn't believe it. I'm still amazed. They go to a school once a week for homeschool. We both homeschool them for the same reasons. Too much trouble in school. It's hard to find teachers who will work with them. Not against them and always punishing them. We met at the skating rink and I got to talk to Melanie some more. Awesome! What are the chances our two boys became good friends at school and are both Aspergers? Now they can annoy each other to death and they'll both love it. LOL! Chaz's brothers don't put up with it but Dexter does and vice versa. I'm sure they'd both have fun poking at each other and thinking it's hilariously funny. :D
