I feel I have to clarify.
I am not a conceited person. I am quite the opposite. I have a difficult time admitting I do ANYTHING well....I constantly self evaluate and self criticize.
If my children make it into functioning adults who contribute to society, it will be in spite of me.
However, I would be remiss to not say my unique parenting and parenting choices have not helped my children thus far. I also can not deny being led by my Father in Heaven. It is as true to me and as deep and real as my love for my children.
I couldn't have accomplished what I have without Him. I would not have the gift of instinct to go down the right paths for my family's health. I would not have the blessing of seeing autistic children's strengths and the unique ability to understand how to teach them. I see things and understand things other educators don't see. I owe it to God and can not take credit for it with a clear conscience.
I hope and pray the things I have learned will be useful to other families facing the same challenges.
