Do you identify with the grief of parents who don't understand why their child screeches like a pterodactyl or bear-crawls through the hallways? Do you feel the frustration and sadness from parents who mourn the simplicity of going to birthday parties and out to dinner? Do you recognize this story?</p><p>Author Amanda Irtz recognizes this story, but she doesn't let it take over her life. Irtz is the mother of child on the autism spectrum, and instead of focusing on the struggle that comes with raising her son, she takes pride in his unique individuality, reminding herself that there is nothing wrong with her son - or with her. The Clouds that Chase Us is a story of how one mother uses daily meditation, breathing exercises, kindness, and a whole lot of patience to help her child and herself get through each day. This book is for those who are parents, sisters, brothers, or friends of a child on the autism spectrum, and it reminds us that apologizing for uncommon behaviors or sensory meltdowns is never necessary. </p><p> </p><p>The Clouds that Chase Us is a beautiful reminder that love, truly, is unconditional. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"The power of breath through life's unexpected circumstance. Amanda Irtz gives us a myriad of experiences that offers hope, advice and strategies to parents raising a child with autism, and a neurotypical developing sibling. As a mother of a son with autism, parent advocate and a professional in the community, The Clouds That Chase Us gave a warm feeling and a deepened connection to Amanda and her Buddy, as we have similar shared experiences. This book is a phenomenal resource for caregivers, supporters and service providers in reinforcing that we are not alone in this journey." <em>Dr. Alisha "Ali" Griffith, Autism Parenting Strategist, Business Expert and Ignite Coach, www.draligriffith.com</em></p><br>
