Hey all and welcome! Thought I would take a moment to introduce myself to let you know a little bit about what this blog might look like. While I do not have any specific thoughts or topics in mind, knowing a bit about me will help you to know if this blog will be relevant to you. So read on my friend and if you do not see anything you can relate to or that appeals to you then feel free to adventure forward to find someone in this universe who you feel you can connect with, I wish you well on your journey! However, if you are reading this ‘about me’ section and are thinking… “hey, I think she is writing about me!” then please stay and we can go through this crazy life together! So here it goes. I am currently, as I write this, a 35-year-old wife and mother. I say 35 because I have got only a few more months to say so. Probably by the time you read this I will be 36 but who is counting right? I have been married to my husband for over 15 years now and we have two beautiful boys. I live in a house of all neurodiverse brains. My husband and my two boys are on the Autism spectrum which leaves my world always an adventure. Many of my posts will probably be about how I navigate a neurodiverse relationship and manage two boys who made me realize exactly why they call it a spectrum! I am also a devout believer in the Lord as my Savior. I have been saved since I was a teenager, over 20 years now, and I cannot imagine my life without Him in it. I also have recently had some tough encounters with the church and will touch on some of that as well. Finally, I am a daughter of what I believe to be a narcissistic mother (she has not been diagnosed but this is what I believe) and I have been navigating that for almost a year now. Many of my posts will be around that subject as well. Finally, I am a mother of an angel boy in heaven. While the loss is almost 10 years old now, it still touches a part of my soul in a way that changes how I look at the world. Anyway, that is me in a very tiny nutshell but sort of gives you a general idea of what this is going to look like. So, if you feel kinship with anything I have said please feel free to stay, read some of my stories, and maybe you will not feel so alone in the world because at the end of the day I feel that is something we all need, to feel just a little less alone. Blessings friends! – Rayne
