My wee man turned 3 this week

Can't believe how fast three years passes you by when you have kids.


I can't believe how slowly 3 months goes by when you have a son on the spectrum.


He is non-verbal, but finds his voice (noise) when he doesn't like what he is doing or how you are doing it. Routines are king, and colours play an important part in his life.


He generally only has two speeds, running and sleeping. 
So keeping him still for all sorts of things is a challenge.


New textures are a challenge for him, but he seemed to cope well yesterday with mucky hands when we went to the farm


And he didn't freak out when the "Robert the Goat" wanted some food.

He was so exhausted and hungry after two hours of running around the farm that he sat and ate lunch, and for a moment I forgot that he was diagnosed last year as being on the spectrum.
