    Good Intentions

    Good Intentions

    Late this morning I went for a run...

    A super slow, 3 mile, butt cheeks flapping and mocking me in the wind kind of run... But as the perfection post mentioned- the slow butt cheek flopping run is better than the super duper fast 5 mile run that I don't go on...

    While running, my music wouldn't play anything but Aerosmith--no matter how many times I tried to stop, start and reset ...So finally I gave up and figured that there were messages I needed to hear inside...

    Man, I sounded just like Steven Tyler while my headphones were blaring in my ears-- and I pretended like I was in the comfort of my own living room as I belted out words and did air guitar while jogging in slo-mo on the Woodward strand.

    Damn skippy...


    New Year's resolution... use the phrase damn skippy waaay more often...

    Yesterday was all about errands and adult and boring-- so today we had some on purpose fun with Greyson and Parker. We went to The Discovery Center, Fresno. It's been around since 1956 and they describe it as hands on Science fun.. St. Louis friends- the first time I went here I totally was expecting something like the Magic House or the Discovery Center... Not so much... More like The Magic House meets Sanford and Sons...But after I got done laughing- I fell in love because it's my boy's idea of Heaven... You can get crazy filthy and play in the dirt- it's a little boy's delight.

    Walden pond...a whimsical ecosystem filled with pond life. They even have little nets to catch the little swimmy critters.

    And Greyson's absolute Favorite...

    The Gemini Space capsule...donated by NASA in 1961. It never made it into space due to a structural flaw but it was used for simulation...

    Gadgets and gizmos and knobs and switches....Nirvana...

    _______________________________
    With the beginning of a New Year comes thoughts and reflections of the past year and of our Future... Whatever thoughts your brain holds--try to make 'em good ones... Take the tough hard times and fold them up ever so nicely and place them in the box labeled the past...

    I don't like Resolutions in the form of restrictions and rules- stuff like- I will do MORE good for me stuff (work out, I will make my butt less floppy, I will eat organic boring blah blah) and LESS bad for me stuff (eating dessert/fast foods blah blah boring) ... No, no, no...

    I could never live without dessert.

    I don't do resolutions but I do Intentions...They don't involve taking away but instead they add to... It's still at it's beginning baby zygote stage- but Michael and I have mentioned possibly starting a Life with Greyson + Parker Foundation...  I can't explain it any better than I have to share this goodness that he has brought into my Life... and-- I have to take the pain that I sometimes feel and turn it into good too.

    I love him so much it hurts... I know you understand and you feel it for your people too...

    I want to interact with the World. I want to triple quadruple the number of people that read www.lifewithgreyson.blogspot.com.   I want to change the way the World sees Autism... I want to create understanding and Awareness... and I want you to take it and pass it on...

    The PC term for the opposite of an Autistic Child is a Typical Child...

    This past weekend I started working on my presentation for a photography class I am offering in January (How to shoot your SLR camera on Manual mode)...

    It was so much fun and I have so much good stuff I am excited to share... The January class is full- and originally it was going to be a one time thing- but I may start to offer the class on a monthly basis if the response is good... It's a 2 ½ hour class on the basics-- part classroom and part hands on outside photo taking... I'm only charging $100 because I want the every day Mom or Dad (or budding photographer) to be able to take it without spending a ton-- and because I like teaching even more than I like money... I can't begin to explain what a gift photography has been in my Life... I want to share that gift with you too... (If you are interested in learning about future classes- please send me an email to kellyc43@gmail.com with Photography Class in the subject line ).

    Happy New Year's friends... I'll be back in a couple of days.

    Love,
    Chrissy
