Sleep.... oh what I would do for a nap today!



Sleep.
You either get too much of you don't get enough.
At some point in everyday of our lives we think "I am tired" even if we are dehydrated, hungry or just metally unstimulated.
When you have Autistic children.. you are tired. They suck energy out of you... why do you think they have so much? lol
Why?
Because we worry, we are constantly weighing options, ideas, opinions. We are mentally in overdrive and that exhausts anyone.
Then the fact that we are running around after our 7 yr old as if he was a toddler. 7 years of chasing Gemini I should be a size 2.... I am unfortunately FAR from it!

Then if you have ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) Children your already Sucked dry emotionally, under nourished and over caffinated body now must work or clean or just survive the day!
Add a few meltdowns, some wrestling matches and a water incident, you have very exhausted parents.

So us moms and dads are tired.
