Does autism have a look? I was in the store the other day with Wesley, and he had a bit of a tantrum because I wouldn't let him buys something that he wanted. I had a man stare at me and give me a dirty look, so just like I often do, I said to him "He is autistic." Then the man says "He doesn't look autistic." If I had not been busy trying to control the meltdown, I would have asked it what exactly autism looks like, because I didn't know that it had a "look".
We have a had a rough last couple of days, but we have also had some good times in between. Wesley has been attending summer school and enjoys the fact that he gets to eat both breakfast and lunch at school, it is the bees knees to him, and of course Damien is enjoying his mommy time again without "bubba". This is just the norm around here. Lots of time spent in time out, but still lots of fun, dancing and laughing. we cuddle, tickle, and tease just like normal families, we just have to watch that we don't overstimulate them, or else the melt downs will be bad. I hope that everyone is having a great summer, and that they are enjoying their time with their families. Have a good night!
