My Life with Autism

Today MLWP is pleased to feature our second guest post, written by blogger and mom Melissa M., about her experience as the parent of an autistic child. Please check out her blog, Lissa's 3 Girls.

How is my life different with Autism? Everything is the same, yet so different. I have 3 girls. My two oldest are 11 and 9 years old and are called “Neuro-typical” (NT) children in the Special Needs world. My youngest is almost 5 and has Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Sensory Modulation Disorder (a common side effect of ASD). I’m by no means going to compare my older children with my youngest. But in the last year, the one thing I’ve learned about ASD children and NT children is that there is no way to compare them.

Guest Post Preview!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!

I'm excited to announce that we will be featuring our second guest post tomorrow.  Blogger and mom Melissa M. has written an excellent post entitled "My Life with Autism."  She gives us all a glimpse of life with an autistic child, and it's truly an interesting perspective. I'm happy that she is willing to share her story with us.

Please tune in tomorrow, and have a fabulous Sunday!
