Well since I have only just started let me give you some background as to why I decided to do this. It isn't out of lack of anything to do, if you know me then you know that already. My initial reason was to help other people understand my son and to see the challenges he faces everyday. I will give you some background about this topic in a moment but before I do I want to make sure that one thing is understood. I am NOT complaining by any means. I love him more then anyone could imagine and I enjoy his quirks, obsessions, imagination, humor, hell everything about the boy ( with the exception of maybe the meltdowns ). The purpose of this post is help other people who may know him understand him and see past the things that they initially judge as negative and see the gorgeous, caring creative child inside. The part of him that he hides and protects because honestly some people can be cruel.
Now a little background, Kaden is a spirited child (I am going to leave his diagnosis out for now), but he is what some people have call different, altho I do not feel that their "different" label is accurate. He is extremely intelligent, which can make some repetitive tasks a challenge, he is full of energy and so creative and inventive. On a day to day basis, he fills me on the ever changing elaborate plan for his life, starting with being a sniper in the army to the present plan of find extraordinary creatures and having a farm in Florida (he would prefer albino creatures). His creativity knows no bounds, i am amazed everyday at the things he invents in his mind. A lot of which are pretty cool if I don't say so myself.
Well I am going to stop here, and i will post again later and maybe touch on this subject again (maybe not), and my hopes for this blog aside from just ranting and raving at times, is to help the world to see the amazing child he is (and other children like him), and to maybe help other parents who just may be in the same place we are. It's a journey every day but it is exciting to say the least!
