I cant believe its been so long since my last post. Im sure my followers didnt know what to do :)
Its been a busy time, with school and me trying to find a job, it slipped my mind. I am really trying to figure out a way to generate more followers. I added the link to Facebook but no dice, I guess I have to be Shaq, Ashton Kucher, or Lebron James to get big numbers lol. And Im not on Twitter, Im just not into that. In any event, we did have a meltdown last week. The schedule was moved around at school and there was crying at the end of the day. I started thinking about the mind of an autistic child. One little thing like a teacher being absent, a substitute or drs appt, or meeting, can throw a schedule in disarray, therefore, throwing the autistic child's day into an uproar. I just thought about how many times in our daily lives, that things change and we just go with the flow. All we can do is console them and try not to pull our hair out. Which would be a short pull for me :) today was actually a good day, and Math was good so we cant complain. We are still struggling a bit with History but we have till June...
One way to increase your readership on your blog is to start frequenting online support groups where other moms can get to know you and or are looking for someone else with an autistic child that they can connect with. Try iVillage.com they have a ton of great message boards especially the parenting/motherhood boards and I know they have one or more dedicated to raising autistic children. I've met tons of awesome women through their pregnancy boards during my pregnancy with Cooper and now I'm so close with many of them that I travel the country meeting up with them and their kids. My recent trip to Minneapolis was to meet up with 3 other moms I met via iVillage.com :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteWOW, Julie that is some great info, too long it took me two months to get it lol, I feel really passionate about it, so I wanna invest time for it. Maybe 2011 is the time to do it.
