Drop me a line!
Hi everyone. I'm just going to do a quick little Monday morning podcast for you this morning, and I'm just. These are some things that I am hopeful for you as you go on your journey this week with all your family and your kids that are on the spectrum, and just some things I jotted down, and of course this is my little list. It's not little, though, but anyway. So I'm hopeful that this week you and your family don't worry about the milestones but take each step as a stepping stone, that you laugh more and less tears, that you increase learning on both your children and yourself. Long and more eye contact with your child that's on the spectrum, a full hug and not just that lean-in shoulder. More acceptance of new things and people around you accept you and your child sleep better and learn to calm the brain at night. Less meltdowns, less regression behavior Sorry about my dog barking Eating better, trying new foods, try a new activity.
Speaker 1:Do a day without an agenda or change the agenda Extra time with your other children or your special someone. Make a laughter jar. Write down the little laughters you have throughout the day with your child or your friends and put the date on there and the time that you had a good laugh. Make one night a family night and do something exciting and fun with your family and teach about wait time with your children. If they want something, set a timer for two minutes and have them wait. We all need to learn how to be patient and wait, and that's one way to do it. Don't pray for more patience, because God will give them to you and you'll be in this long line learning patience, so don't do that.
Speaker 1:Anyway, that's all I wanted to say for this Monday morning. I hope you're all having a blessed day and I hope you have a wonderful week ahead of you. Don't be afraid to send me a little request if you want to. There's a fan mail that's supposed to be at the end of this to let you know how you can send me a little note if you'd like to just say hi and where you're from. Talk to you later, bye, bye.
