She Opened It All By Herself 💜

She used to hand these straight to me to open. 💜 Now she’s starting to realize she can try it herself. Then came lesson number two—pick that wrapper up and put it in the trash. 🤭🌸 These little moments of independence mean so much to me. Every little step counts. #autismmom #autismaccep

Homeschool Day 1: Learning Patience in Real Life

I said we were working on patience today… Bella had other plans. 😭 Today was day one of homeschool, but our lesson didn’t happen at a desk. We took learning into the real world—slowing down, waiting, listening, redirecting, and working through the frustration when “not yet” felt really hard.

I Used to Wonder Why She Did Things Like This

Raising Bella has taught me that I don’t always have to understand something immediately to respect what it means to her. Sometimes my job is simply to watch, learn, and meet her where she is. 💜🌸 I’m still learning her world one day at a time. #autismmom #autismawareness #autismacce

SHE REALLY LOOKED LIKE SHE WORKED THERE 🤭

I walked away to grab something from the buffet and came back to find Bella behind the dessert counter at the sink with the water running. 🤭💜 The funniest part was the employee was still back there working while Bella was doing her own thing like she belonged right there with her. 😊 Just anot

She Kept Coming Back to This 💜

SOMETIMES WHAT LOOKS RANDOM ISN’T RANDOM AT ALL. 💜 We stopped for egg rolls, but Bella found so much more to explore. She moved through the space in her own way, connected with people, checked out everything that caught her attention — and somehow kept returning to the same spot. One thing

HER HANDS WERE FULL… SHE STILL WASN’T DONE 🌸

Her hands were already full, but Bella knew exactly what she wanted. 💜 What started as a quick convenience store trip turned into one of those everyday moments that gives me another glimpse into how Bella experiences the world. And getting everything to the register was only part of the adven

She Keeps Doing This Over and Over 💜

The tapping, the whistling, the little sounds, the tiptoeing… Bella was completely locked into her own little rhythm tonight. 💜 Sometimes these repetitive little moments are simply part of how she experiences and interacts with the world around her. I get to watch, learn, and understand a little

I Called Her Name & She Came Back 💜

Bella was busy exploring and checking out everything around her, but when I called her name, she turned around and came right back to me. 💜 It may look like an ordinary little moment, but these are the moments I notice. Every response, every connection, and every little bit of progress matters.

Day 4 of Bella’s Hair: We Almost Finished 💜

Day 4 of doing Bella’s hair, and this is where we’re ending our hair journey for now. 💜🌸 We picked up from the halfway point and kept going. When something wasn’t working, we adjusted. When Bella needed reassurance, I gave it to her. There were harder moments, breaks, kisses, and plenty of patie

Day 3 of Bella’s Hair Journey 💜

Day 3 of doing Bella’s hair… and we’re still going. 💜 After getting through the wash, it was time to start the retwist. Bella was already letting me know she had about enough. She tried to get away, closed up my products, moved my hands when she wanted me to stop, fussed, whistled, cried, set

Not Even the Rain Could Slow Her Down 🌧️💜

Not even the pouring rain was slowing Bella down. 🌧️💜 We made another Family Dollar run, and before we could even get through the door, somebody noticed how excited she was. “She excited about something, ain’t she?” “Yeah. Ice cream.” 😊 She grabbed her candy, headed to the freezer, picked

Pure Joy in a Room Full of Bubbles 🫧💜

Sometimes the simplest moments bring the biggest joy. 💜 No big outing. No big lesson. Just Bella in the living room, surrounded by bubbles and jumping her little heart out. 🫧🌸 I love catching these ordinary moments where she’s simply enjoying herself. Sometimes that’s the whole story — and th

SHE STARTED HELPING 💜

Hair washing is still not one of Bella’s favorite things, but this time the process looked a little different. 💜 After giving her time to get comfortable with me in the tub, it was finally time to actually start washing her hair. I began slowly with water from my hands. Bella vocalized, pushe

SHE STOPPED FOR THE RAIN 🌧️💜

We had just gotten back from the store when Bella stopped before going inside. 💜 The rain was coming down, and she stood at the railing just watching it. Looking around. Looking up. Taking it all in. Then she reached her little hand out to feel the rain for herself. 🌧️🌸 There was no big lesso

I GOT IN THE TUB WITH HER 💜

Hair washing has always been a process for Bella, and after our attempt at the sink didn’t work, I decided to try something completely different. 💜 This time, I put Bella in her bathing suit and gave her time to get comfortable in the water first. No rushing straight into washing her hair. No im

HER HANDS WERE FULL… SHE WASN’T DONE 💜

First time in this Family Dollar, and Bella had to figure out the setup before she could get down to business. 😊💜 Once she started finding what she wanted, though, there was no stopping her. Lollipop, Kit Kat, Takis, ice cream… those little hands kept getting fuller and fuller. I offered to help

THE LITTLE ROUTINES SHE CREATES 💜🌸

Some routines become part of the day without anybody ever planning them. 💜 Every time we come back, Bella makes her little stop at this tricycle before going inside. Tonight she walked up carrying Minnie and her other comfort friend, stopped like she always does, sat for a moment, whistled, and

We Tried the Sink for Hair Washing 💜

After our last hair-washing video, so many people suggested that I try washing Bella’s hair over the sink instead of in the bathtub. So I listened and gave it a try. 💜 I tried involving Bella in the process, letting her interact with the water and showing her what we were doing. But as we got

Waiting Looks Different for Bella 💜

Waiting in line is such an ordinary part of everyday life, but sometimes the smallest moments show me another piece of how Bella experiences the world. 💜 She had Minnie and the cookies she picked out, and she was ready to check out. But it wasn’t our turn yet. So while we waited, Bella paced

She Had Everything She Needed 💜

Minnie in one hand. An apple in the other. And Mama right beside her. 💜 She had everything she needed for this little walk to the car. I spend a lot of time sharing the moments that help people understand Bella’s world, but getting to know her also means seeing moments like this. No big expla
