Embracing Mrs. Mommy: Learning from, Living with, and Loving Someone with Autism #221832
Some wise person once said, “If you know one child with autism, you know one child with autism.” In Embracing Mrs. Mommy: Living with, Learning from and Loving Someone with Autism, Rocky Bowers Parra provides snapshots of daily life with Matthew, her youngest child. Diagnosed on the autism spectrum at three years old, Matthew positively impacts his parents and siblings in ways they never imagined. Rocky and her family began advocating for autism acceptance and awareness soon after his diagnosis. Eventually she began to write about their experiences as a way to promote further awareness. Her writing grew into something more. By sharing their story, Rocky hopes to help others affected by autism find the good in their situations, celebrate their successes (big or small) and, most important, feel the love of someone who has walked before them. Special-needs parenting and family life can sometimes feel lonely and isolated. In Embracing Mrs. Mommy, Parra lets readers know they are not alone. The road is bumpy and not without the occasional detour, but there is a way forward; you just have to follow the path and embrace the journey.
