To my #actuallyautistic friends,
I can only imagine how you are feeling right now, and though it may not feel like it just know you are loved and valued, and the majority of parents love their children the way I love mine 💗
Keep advocating 💪
Keep raising awareness 🙌
Keep being you ✌️

🌍 Today is world autism awareness day 🌍
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, for autistic people and their parents/carers autism awareness is 24/7 365.
I have been thinking today about our lives and how they fit within today’s world and actually they fit pretty well. I want to send all my love out to everyone struggling at this weird time in our planets history. We will survive because...
🌈 Someone with autism taught me about isolation a long time ago. We find peace in it.
🌈 Someone with autism taught me that patience is a skill to be learnt not a character trait.
🌈 Someone with autism showed me what inner strength really is and how best to draw on it.
🌈 Someone with autism taught me to listen with my heart and my eyes as well as my ears. You hear so much more that way.
🌈 Someone with autism showed me how to be happy in the here and now.
🌈Someone with autism taught me to never stop fighting for what I believe in.
🌈 Someone with autism showed me sometimes there is no one to blame.
🌈 Someone with autism taught me it’s ok to not be ok.
🌈Someone with autism showed me the world is perfectly imperfect and that is ok.
🌈 Someone with autism can turn my tears into a smile with just one look.
🌈 Someone with autism is my lighthouse in a storm.
🌈 Someone with autism is my hero. #WorldAutismAwarenessDay #AutismAwarenessMonth #Autism #Somethingaboutsam #meetthesenparent
it’s an autism Christmas every Christmas! we do it their way to help them get through what can be so unsettling. the change to routine, the whole ceremony of Christmas. it’s a circus. so while our Christmas is not traditional, we’re don’t always even eat in the same room together. it’s different but it works. #Autism #anautismchristmas #autismchristmas #Christmas #Somethingaboutsam
There are things my son doesn’t do right now because his development is delayed. That doesn’t mean he can’t do them.
Watching him, a few nights ago when he was trying so hard to string some words together; the concentration on his face. I was in awe. I could almost see the neural processors working in his brain trying so hard to do what he so obviously wants them to do. Which tells me he can do it. It’s just a matter of time. Those processors just need to catch up is all. 💙👏🥰
