D always amazes me with her ability to craft something out of bluetack, tissue paper and elastic bands, it seems to calm her (fortunately) if she's anxious and I guess it's something she'll always be able to do. Little pieces of crafting material can... Read more

T and D go back to school next week, it feels like the last few weeks have flown by. We haven't been away, it's Hubbie's busiest work period and they're comfortable in their own home and garden, with their toys and comforters. I think they've had fun,... Read more

It's been a nice end to the week, unexpectedly. If I'd said to T and D this morning "right, we're all going to be happy today, you'll both help me in the garden this afternoon without falling out and we'll all still be alright this evening" it won't have... Read more

It's nearly back-to-school time in the Bluecrisps household and once the uniforms, the shoes, PE kit and pencil cases have been sorted out, it's time to think about lunchboxes and keeping them varied and healthy, despite my children's sensory issues.... Read more

Now, one of the words in tonight's title has been better received than the other... Let's start with the positives, D is overjoyed that my neck is better today, as she put it "I can now have tight cuddles, yippee!". Much needed as she had nightmares last... Read more

It's nearly back-to-school time, the summer's almost gone. New pencil case purchased, do the school shoes still fit? Lunch box with favourite character on. A new class, new teacher, new term. This time next year, it will be "big" school *bites fingernails*.... Read more

T and D have done me proud today, there were changes and waiting around but - bar a few little T-type moans - they coped. This morning was an eye test appointment for D, a good trial run for leaving the house at school run time (yep, next Wednesday is... Read more

We lost D for a few minutes this afternoon, but it felt like a lot longer. She got anxious because Hubbie was bringing his 3-tier ladder into the garden, something she knew was happening but wasn't prepared for the metallic clanking and the barking of... Read more

This is Funee post I've been meaning to write for a while, but kept getting distracted by life with T and D (not that I mind one bit). A few weeks ago it was BAKING hot wasn't it? I mean real don't-bother-to-put-makeup-on-cos-it-will-just-slide-off hot.... Read more

One of the issues my autistic children have is recognising emotions and talking about their feelings, we've been trying to help that along with a new Freddo product from Cadburys. The Freddo packs contain an average of 11 faces, each showing one of the... Read more
Good morning, injection day for D, didn't go brilliantly but it's done. Poor thing. Hope everyone's day goes well #autismparent
