I guess it's a matter of perspective really. <br />To others my "life" is not one with many opportunities to see a "beautiful vista" and they've told me so - the reason being my 3 year old son has been diagnosed with developmental delays and is one the autism spectrum.<br />However, I don’t see it that way. It’s true I may have a harder time with him than they do or did with their children, but I get to see things that they never will. I see him differently than they do. To me he is not a problem and uncontrollable, he is a very special little boy who wants to be understood and would love to tell you all about the world; he’s just slower in doing it and sometimes communicates differently than you would expect. <br />There are incredible vistas to be seen in so many different situations and aspects of life if you are looking for them!Jen plus 6https://www.blogger.com/profile/11227137014735838779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-80597287593439196822009-04-13T22:55:00.000-06:002009-04-13T22:55:00.000-06:00A little over four years ago, my car was stolen an...A little over four years ago, my car was stolen and totaled in a off-road police chase. It was right before my first baby was to be born, and I was pretty sad to lose my car. The miraculous thing was having the insurance money from my car allowed us to pay our hospital and ambulance bills from a somewhat hectic birth experience. I just was so grateful to the Lord for taking care of us. Sure, I had to go without a car for a few years, but we were fortunate to be in a place where we could survive on one family vehicle. <br /><br />Even now I still miss my little car, but I am very happy to think that I didn't have to go through those years stressed over paying back those debts. I also have my beautiful little boy, and that is something else to be grateful about.Haiku Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06935235354427184103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-52792664770512558842009-04-13T21:32:00.000-06:002009-04-13T21:32:00.000-06:00What a wonderful Easter, Jennie.

Every time I worry, it works out the way it was suppose to so I wasted lots of time in meaningless worry when I should be looking on the vistas.Taffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11796711977284429278noreply@blogger.com
