I'm Viv, single mother of two. I have a 7 1/2 year old boy, Evan, who I've recently realized has Asperger's Syndrome. And I have a 5 month old son, Michael, who is also wonderful.

My boys give me lots of love, and I love them both as much as humanly possible. I give them everything I have.

I hope I will be accepted into this community warmly, I look forward to learning a lot from other parents and anyone else who cares to share their opinions and experiences with me.

I have a lot of questions, and a lot of emotions to process. I also have a lot of work to do in order to get my son the support he needs. I don't want to change him, he's perfect as he is, but I do want to make things easier for him if I can.

I guess that's what all parents want.

So that's my introduction, Merry Christmas all!
:)
