Welcome to The Messy Aussie Mum Blog
I’m a mum in my 40s navigating the beautiful chaos of life with a family that keeps me on my toes. My teenage daughter, who has autism, brings a unique perspective and endless joy to our days. My adult child has spread their wings and flown the nest, living independently but always close to my heart.
Our household is completed by three mischievous cats who keep things lively, and a beloved grand-dog who adds an extra layer of love and fun to our lives.
Recently, I discovered that I, too, have autism. This revelation has freaked me out, just when I thought we were getting on top life. Our little family has been through alot and I’m sure there is light at the end of the tunnel some where.
Join me as I share the highs, the lows, the laughter, and the love that come with being a messy Aussie mum. Does it get easier? I would really love to hear from other parents and young adults, please feel free to share your story’s in the comment. Please remember this is our story, every person is different, I would just like to ask that all comments be supportive. We experience way too much discrimination and negativity in the real world we don’t need it here.
