babe in blogland

Not only am I new to writing a blog, I must admit I'm also new to reading them. I had poked around a few times but hadn't found anything worth a regular visit. Over the past 2 weeks or so, though, I've been up just about every night well into the wee hours reading the stories of peoples' lives. Here are a few of the better ones I've found - how about you?

I've spent most of the time reading autism-focused blogs; as I mentioned earlier, I've been amazed at the different viewpoints, especially the "please don't cure us" crowd. The spectrum at times can seem as wide as the Grand Canyon, but reading these blogs reminds me what the similarities are and what bonds these children (and us parents) together.

Just tonight, I found 2 great blogs about the Christian life. I certainly hope and expect to find more. I also hope to find more folks who are running special needs programs at their church. I know there are thousands of them out there, maybe they are just late to the blogging world like me :)
