The turkey is in the oven smothered and stuffed with butter and herbs, and the rolls are sitting out rising, awaiting their turn to be baked. Next comes the pie, I can’t wait for that.

I’ve been wanting to discuss this for a while but I couldn’t officially do it until today. Today my 3 1/2 year old wonderful son, was diagnosed with Autism. He is moderate on the autism spectrum.
