How small the world has become? I am a South African, married to a man from India and living in the USA. Small, right!!! but it has become even smaller with all the social networking sites. I have met people I would have never come across in my daily life. Some for a couple of years now and knowing some one out there with similar every day challenges , I feel supported and strong that I am not alone. Just a pick me up when I am down and also to share my joys. I am happy to get all your feedbacks, ideas on how to work with my kids and also give mine so it may help someone else. The internet has changed the world as we know of it.

Sometimes, good things happen during bad time. Yes it is true, my husband is out of work for a few months now and the children have gotten more close to him. My daughter is a daddy’s girl but my son is a mommy’s boy and with his dad been at home, it was a bit difficult for him. From me been there to his dad, it was out of his routine. My son has autism and does not do well in change but as time went on, now he looks to him for help. The best part was he choose his dad over me for certain things, which made me sad and happy at the same time. To be honest it is kind of a break for me. It is so good to see them get even closer and I know that would not change now.

I never thought the day would come, when both my children will play with one another. My son who has autism and my daughter who has CRS (Caudal regression Syndrome), two different forms of disabilities, how could they meet in the center and play? At home, they were aware of each other being at home but did not play one on one. I used to sit with both of them and used hand over hand and make them play together. I would always be there helping them play together. Then one day out of the blue he walked to her and sat opposite her took her hands in his and started to sing. She looked at him laughing and trying to sing. It was such a good feeling to see them play together and I did not have to help or be in the middle. All I can say, yes, kids from different worlds and disabilities can play together, all they need is patience and a little help.
