About Me

My photo
DonnaB
I am a blessed wife to my husband of 12 years, Roger, and mother of two precious little boys, Nathan (7y/o) and Luke (5y/o). My life is a little crazy at times (whose isn't ?). My youngest son was diagnosed with autism in August of 2010 and our lives have been turned a bit upside down. My life and my mission is to be a godly wife and mother for my family. This is a one-day- at-a-time challenge here. Trying to balance the needs of my oldest with the special needs of my youngest has been difficult to say the least. Not sure I will be able to answer any of life's pressing questions on this blog but my hope is that I might promote autism awareness, encourage someone, or spur someone to pray for me and my family because we always need it!
