    Happy Anniversary!
    As soon as I see “Marriage” as a topic of what you’re writing about I can’t wait to read it. You are so honest and relatable thank you for sharing all aspects of your life. Autism brings many challenges. When I read 80% of Autism parents marriages fail my heart sank. Like you, we have our ups and downs. Times we almost left each other. The wisest pieces of advice I received while engaged was – forgive each other. This has stuck with me like mantra. At first I thought What!, what do you mean we aren’t going to hurt each other. It’s the little things that add up and the moments of lashing out. Being on the same page of bringing up a child with Autism and all things that includes can bring out the worst and best in us.
    You and Joe are an inspiration. Cheers to another 24 years of bliss ;- )

    I cried at this it’s so perfect. Funny how you used the word ‘grit’ here; my younger son and I walked passed a salt bin about an hour before I read this and my son asked what grit was. I told him it’s what I need every day. 😂

    Happy Anniversary…I too would look for the free streaming version of the movie…having kids means needing every extra penny for them…or for an illness that can’t be planned on.
