A few days back, Lil Sis had a friend over for dinner. Her friend (who just turned 11 and also has a sibling on the spectrum) had never met Griffin before. At the dinner table, Griffin opened the conversation with our honored guest by wishing her a happy Earth Day (it was) and then asking her how many kids she had.
.
Without missing a beat, she told Griffin that she had not had any children yet and would probably be waiting to get married, or at least meeting the right guy, before becoming a mother.
.
I think the time for us to have “the talk” with Griffin is fast approaching.

I’ve been doing a lot of research about autism because our company (CauseTee) is fundraising for a charity (The A.skate Foundation) that works with children affected by autism, and your blog has provided a much needed laugh. Thank you for sharing your family with everyone and enlightening the people like me who have never dealt with the challenges that autism can present.
