getting out the door for school is a daily battle

-

 "Mornings can be tough for any kid, but for my autism son, getting out the door for school is a daily battle. The transition from home to school can be overwhelming, and the simplest tasks become monumental challenges. I've tried everything to make mornings smoother, from visual schedules to gentle reminders, but some days it feels like we're fighting a losing battle. I'd love to hear from you - what were your school mornings like? Did you struggle to get out the door, or was it a breeze? And for my fellow autism parents, what strategies have worked for you? Let's share our experiences and support each other in making mornings a little easier for our kids." #autismacceptance #autismmom #autismdad #fanpage #exploremore #fypシ

Why I Celebrate My Neurodiversity Son Today

  Today, I’m celebrating my son’s hard work and success in his recent testing with one of his favorite dishes—Jamaican Ackee and Saltfish. As a mother to a son with autism, I know how meaningful these moments of achievement are, and I love showing him how proud I am in ways that resonate with him. Food is a big part of our connection, and this special meal is my way of honoring his determination, focus, and the unique journey we share.

But there was a bible verse  that I’ve found very encouraging especially in difficult times.  Deuteronomy 31:8  And the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; Do not fear or be dismayed.

But when I got home, I realized I couldn't do anything else except take care of myself. Sometimes, days just don't go as planned, and that's okay. Today I learned that it's okay to take a step back, rest, and prioritize my own well-being. So, if today was a tough day for you too, remember that it's okay to take a moment for yourself and practice self-care." #autismacceptance #autismmom #selfcare✨
