We bake, ride horses, love arts and crafts surrounded by sweet kittens this is life on the spectrum

Hello friends,
you have landed on this fun area where you will learn a little bit about Autism and how the world around it is discovered.
Our daughter was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder at the age of 2 with level 2 in both areas (communication and social) the levels can change during her lifetime anywhere from 1 to 3 with 3 needing the most support. She can be reevaluated at age 5 to see if anything has changed especially since she does receive therapy. She is verbal but has Hypotonia (low muscle tone) and has displayed signs of Pica (mouthing or eating of inedible items) which has fortunately become less and less. We share what we know and hope you enjoy with us these magical moments as well as learn a bit about autism yourself. Come along and learn how she interacts with these toys which are not necessarily specialty toys. She loves all things cute and girly. Being on the spectrum we never know what type of toy will be overwhelming or too much to process sensory wise. She was attending preschool and is now doing ABA therapy which has helped her make amazing strides forward.
We over here love horses, cats, arts and crafts, ducks, baking and picking strawberries. Being on the autism spectrum things get processed differently and we shall see what she loves or hates in her daily life. Navigating simple things can be quite overwhelming.
Being the youngest of our 3 children we are soaking it all in and seeing how she processes things so differently from our other two has shown us to take our time and take a look at the world from a different angle. We love helping exploring new activities with her and observing how she advances each day in her speech and fine motor skills.
We hope to give you a glimpse into daily life for an autistic child while having fun. A bit of fun and a bit of educational info that may inspire you to try new things if you happen to have a special needs child. Maybe you are simply here to see what are key signs of autism. Either way we appreciate all of you checking in to see us.
xoxo
