12|Finding Joy

Hey, amazing moms! In Episode 12 Nicki dives into the heart of finding joy in the everyday moments of raising autistic kids. This quick 10-minute episode is all about spotting those small, soul-filling moments of connection—whether it’s a high-five on the basketball court, a giggle during a bike ride, or a quiet moment in a blanket fort. Nicki shares personal stories about her son’s love for the outdoors and her daughter’s imaginative world, reminding us that joy often lives in the small stuff, not perfection.

Key Takeaways:

- Joy isn’t always loud or picture-perfect—it’s in the quiet, messy moments of connection.

- Pause and ask yourself nightly: “Where did I feel connection today?” This simple question can help you notice and grow those joyful moments.

- For tough days, know you’re not alone—joy will come, even if it’s quieter than expected.

Faith Encouragement:

Inspired by Zechariah 4:10, Nicki reminds us not to overlook small beginnings. Those little moments of joy are holy ground, and God rejoices with you in them.
