All superhero's struggled with their powers and longed to be free of them. Superman, Spiderman, The Hulk etc.

Mark seems to have a superpower too. The ability to see things as we should instead of the way we do. Brilliant about the allergies. Brilliant.

Great story, from top to bottom, from the beginning of your Love to the expression of Your Union in your sweet boy. Thanks for the peek in your room. =)

Superpowers - I like that! I am frequently surprised and impressed by the auditory stimuli that captures and, sometimes, dominates Owen's attention. He can hear (and enjoy!) birds chirping from a mile away and then be traumatized by the sound of a fly buzzing in a window.

Great observation and connection. It's a blessing to see these things in this way!

Jade, I love it when I get the opportunity to give you all little glimpses of Mark, because I think when I do it's obvious why I love him.

I know you are right, indeed, I know you are righteous, but Oh, how it still shits me that my husband gets annoyed if I play music above barely audible at a dinner party. Industrial deafness be damned! I want to listen to music!

My superpower is apparently detecting other people's superpowers, and it doesn't amount to much.

I love the way you can bridge the gap between two things that seem inconvenient (allergies) and challenging (autism). I really like the gentle lessons you share with us, and how you tie in the various areas of your life that feel unrelated at first blush.

And, I think Mark is terrific. I totally get it. Thanks for sharing this.
