Autism always bites back

Mia is finished july provision and it went really well for her this yr. she loved it. She got to avail of having special needs assistants there all the time. She doesn't have one usually. It was great to see her being comfortable. She bounced into the autism unit everyday chatting away to her friends, real friends that understand her and don't think she's odd or to loud. They're all so excepting of each other is so lovely to see them all be happy. Mias anxiety was quite low which was great. You'd pass the parents dropping their kids of and the smile you would give each other said so much you understood each other and their kids. No judgment. Just acceptance. I felt so relaxed Mia being there. When you have a child like Mia you worry 24/7. It becomes normal to be that way. So a break was great. Some days you wouldn't even see the autism side as much as we would normally. I decided to plan something for August as I knew it was gonna be a long month for Mia and us.
