Hello,

I am Rhonda aka Wyrmwud. I am the mother of four: Jonathan, 25; Jessica, 24; Joshua, 9; and Jacob, 4. As well, I am grandma to Rinoa, 4 (she is 5 months older than my youngest, Jacob). I am married to Jason, father of Joshua and Jacob.

I have OCD and Panic Disorder. My obsessions, er, interests include history, religions, cultures, world events, and so on.

My two youngest and my granddaughter all are on the Autism Spectrum. Joshua and Jacob are like "polar opposites"  - for example -  Jacob never talks while Joshua never stops!  Yet they are alike in ways, such as they are each obsessed with one certain tv show: Joshua loves Blue's Clues, and Jacob loves Yo Gabba Gabba. Both are off the charts tall for their ages. Joshua loves to eat and is a junk food fanatic. He would never dream of eating anything green, and won't eat cheese unless it's on pizza or in mac and cheese. He only drinks milk if it's chocolate. Jacob on the other hand would rather not eat at all. He will not pick up finger foods. He won't allow food put in his mouth unless it's on his little red and yellow plastic toddler spoon. The only foods he will eat are yogurt (any flavor), bananas and  berries (mashed up), spaghetti and meatballs (mashed up meatballs), canned beef ravioli (mashed), Kraft spirals and cheese, spinach, applesauce and oatmeal. I usually mix the bananas, berries and applesauce in with his oatmeal, and he also likes it when I add pulpy orange juice or pureed oranges to it. I've also been adding Carnation Breakfast Essentials to it. He will only drink milk and will not tolerate adding anything to it.

I plan on continuing to write on Blogger as long as I can stop myself from deleting and rewriting!
