I would never presume to know what’s best for your kids. However, I will share what I do with mine and you can decide if it will work for your family.  🙂 One of my goals with my 3 autistic children is help them become as independent as possible.  I want them to be happy,  in … View full post

What do you say when someone asks “how are you doing?”

DiggGoogle+PinterestLinkedInRedditShare/Bookmark
I know it may seem like an easy question to answer but for a special needs parent, that’s not always the case. The truth is that this is a loaded question not easily answered. Speaking from personal experience, most people can’t really handle the truth. People ask me all the time how I’m doing.  Typically, … View full post

Let the manipulation begin

DiggGoogle+PinterestLinkedInRedditShare/Bookmark
Gavin is already trying to manipulate his way into special breaks at school. He’s also becoming annoyed by questions and is way to focused on snack time. The kids are allowed to bring a snack to eat before lunch.  Gavin asked if he could bring a banana to school today.  However, because he’s so focused … View full post

Nightmares

DiggGoogle+PinterestLinkedInRedditShare/Bookmark
I think in pretty darn frustrated with Gavin.  Gavin decided that it would be a good idea to tell Elliott some horror stories before they went to bed tonight.  These stories involved zombies,  decapitated people,  and a few other grossly inappropriate things. Elliott comes downstairs to let me know why Gavin was telling him.  I … View full post

Kids say the cutest things

I was taking video of Emmett eating yogurt. Sounds like a weird thing to film but this is the first time he’s been allowed to eat it because until now, he’s had significant food allergies to milk, lactose, soy and egg. He was really excited to get to eat what his big brothers eat, since … View full post

A new day is upon us

I had a horrible nights sleep or rather lack of sleep. This whole thing with Elliott still has me pretty torn up.  However, I got up to Elliott being  just fine this morning.  He’s in a really good mood. He got ready and off to school without any significant problems. When I got him to … View full post

The boys got along so well yesterday. They even built this little train track together. They are quite proud of this track and have been playing with it since yesterday morning.  I wish we had more moments like this. Having said that, I’ll take the ones that I can get. 🙂 **Thanks for reading**   … View full post

I wanted to let everyone know that Lizze is going to be moving to a new blog and rebuilding from scratch.  What did you think I meant?  😛 As you are aware,  Google detected malware awhile ago.  There was a bad plugin that caused the problems.  Even though Google now recognizes that the dailymommysurvival.com is … View full post

From clean to disaster in no time flat

My boys are multitalented and I love them very much. Having said that, they seem to excel in one particular area.  They can go from a clean room to a complete disaster area in no time flat.  Every night before bedtime, their room gets picked up and shortly after waking up in the morning, this … View full post

Lizze and I had a talk with Gavin, privately this afternoon about what had been going on. The conversation didn’t go very well. One of the reasons that we wanted to talk with him was because his actions had put Elliott and Emmett at odds. Gavin didn’t know how to react to us confronting him … Continue reading »

Not too long after Gavin upset Elliott this morning, he apparently felt the need to move on to Emmett.  I don’t know why but Gavin’s in a mood today and so far, he’s taking it out on everyone else. Emmett has this ball. It’s his absolute, most favorite ball in the world.  At some point … Continue reading »

Gavin replied that he wasn’t using it. Elliott asked of he could use it.  Gavin replied to him by turning around and … Continue reading »

Today was a rougher day than most.  Gavin had a more difficult day, full of less than stellar decisions. I will say that as the day went on, he did better and for that he deserves credit.  At bedtime, I told him what I always tell him.  I said, Gavin I love you. Have good … Continue reading »
