My loose tooth fell out!!!

Today I was wiggling my tooth a little ity bitty teensy weensy bit and it fell out!  I was so excited!  The dentist said it wouldn’t come out until Christmas time!  But my mom said it would fall out in about a week.  She was right!  It’s been a week since my tooth started getting a little loose.  I was so surprised!  I just can’t believe it!  Two years ago I had to have a tooth pulled by the dentist.  So it’s been 2 whole years since I ever got a tooth out!  I wonder how much money the Tooth Fairy will bring!

(What was my mom so worried about?!!)

I’m doing so much better!

I still have a hard time with eating.  But the clothes aren’t that bad.  I’ll wear just about any of my clothes because winter is coming up and it’s getting cold.  I’m homeschooling and that seems to be helping me.  It’s really fun.  And I just got a new dog and dogs really help me.  She cuddles me.  Her name is Addie.  She’s 4 years old.  I’m doing so much better! 

If you are a kid and you are having a hard time, you should try cuddling with a stuffed animal or a pet.  *Homeschooling could help too.  I used to have a really really hard time when I was in regular school.  But now that I’m homeschooling, I’m doing much better.  If you would like to talk to me, please leave me a message on this website.

(*Please remember, these opinions are Autumn’s and she is 7.  I am fully aware not everyone is able to homeschool and that it is not best for everyone).

Really really really really Mad

I feel like I want to break the house.  I feel like I want to break everything, besides my toys and stuff like that.  I’m so mad because it really bothers me and I can’t do stuff.  Sometimes it’s hard to go to school and to go to sleep.  It makes me frustrated.  I wish I could go to school and my clothes wouldn’t bother me.  I wish I could eat.  I’m very happy that you are here because I don’t know anyone else that has Sensory Integration and maybe we can be friends.

Gatagoogoobidicow!!!!

(Autumn has made up her own language because it’s too hard to express what is going on with her skin and hair. Sometimes when she is so bothered by clothes or her hair, she speaks this jibberish-like language. Right now she is bothered by her hair. It is long and curly. She has to wear it up in a ponytail all of the time. It has to be not too tight and not too loose. It has to be slicked back with hairspray so that no whispies stick out. We’ve tried 3 times to get it right now. It’s not working, so she’s not able to go to sleep even though she is exhausted.)

I hate it! I hate it very very bad. My hair bothers me. I hate it. (We don’t usually allow the word hate in our family, but this is how she feels.) It’s so uncomfortable. Why do I have sensory integration? I’m so frustrated. I just really wish my hair didn’t bother me.

Terrible Sensory Integration

(Today is day two of Autumn not being able to go to school because she can’t tolerate clothing. It’s very sad and frustrating for all of us.)

Sensory Integration is sometimes so terrible. Sometimes it makes me feel like I’m so mad and disappointed. And I wish I didn’t have it. It just disrupts my life. It stops me from doing the things I want to do like going to school and gymnastics. I wish I didn’t have sensory integration. I wish I could just throw it away.
