Autism Parenting is so much lighter when we grow a village instead of trying to build a fortress. 🌻 Today’s reminder: start sowing those seeds of support now — friendships, community, care. Because when life gets hard, that’s the garden that keeps you standing tall.
Last night I was at the Minneapolis Crisis Nursery gala. It hit me that support like that doesn't just happen. You have to plan for it. Today, think about the seeds that you're planting. When the hard days hit, that's the garden that keeps you going.
Today's reminder is for my moms about sowing your seeds of support because last night I was at the Minneapolis Crisis Nursery gala and they are a great organization that helps parents who just need a breather, a safe space to bring their little ones for up to 48 hours, no questions asked, no judgments needed. And it hit me that support like that doesn't just happen. You have to plan for it. And I've been really lucky to have people that I can call on when I really needed it. But that took time and it took being honest enough to say, hey, I can't do this for own forever.
So that's not weakness, friends. That's wisdom. Today, think about the seeds that you're planting, the friendships, the partnerships, the communities that you're building, the people who fill your cup. Because when the hard days hit, that's the garden that keeps you going. So drop a comment and tag someone who's part of your support circle.
