My daughter is 9 years old and has autism. In the beginning of getting a diagnosis, life was a series of questions.
We have speech, occupational, massage, physical therapy as well as routine doctors appointments every 3 months, but I have learned to appreciate her for who she is.
She is a beautiful, energetic, inquizative child. She makes you smile. She is happy with simple things and she is so trusting. I am so proud of her and her accomplishments.
I see so many times, parents saying, OH POOR ME, but I just wanted to take the time and say I love my daughter as she is and living life through her eyes, makes the world a better place.
I also have a "normal child". My son is 7 and spectacular.
Life is good. Even if a child has a disability. It isn't what you would choose, but there are blessings in every child.
