Sheleagh's Story
My son just turned 5 in January and I'm going to be 36 in May - time flies. I have also re-entered the world of dating and boy is it fun. My therapist was able to get me to admit I have daddy issues which explains why I date older men (20 - 30 years my senior). Next week we are going to tackle why my marriages have failed and what I can do to make sure that doesn't happen again (sarcasm). I did promise my brothers I wouldn't get married again, at least not any time soon. Well, that's enough about my dating life.
As many people know, my son has Autism. Nicholas was diagnosed when he was 21 months old and has been receiving therapy in school and at home.

Life
Right after 9/11, I moved from Alexandria, VA where I lived just 3 miles from the Pentagon and worked in the belt-way, to Northern California. That is where I met my now second ex-husband - anyone could predict I'd be divorced twice within a 3 year period. The best part of my marriage has been becoming a mother. I had my son when I was 30 and my life has changed for the better ever since. Currently, I live in Southern California and have purchased another home. I'm a business insurance broker, work for myself and actually like my job. Hope life is treating you as good as it is me.
