Stickman Review

Turning 6
Today you turn 6. For the first time ever you'll be closer to 10 than birth. 6, let that sink in for a while 6. I remember 6 years ago I was worried because they were bringing you into the world early, you made a quick screaming entrance and from that moment you...
The toddler stage!
I remember back when Z was around one, him and Iz were two days apart, she was doing so much more than Z, from pointing to talking. Z didn't point and certainly didn't talk. At the time I said I was eagerly awaiting the toddler stage, the one that they chatted away...

Hopes and dreams
In a few weeks you'll be six. This time six years ago I had dreams and expectations one big one was going to express and you were going to be breastfed. This time five years ago you were signed up to school. This time four years ago I was still expecting you to do...
Rainman
I was invited * last night to see Rainman at New Theatre Cardiff. When Z was diagnosed a few people told me he’ll be like rainman, this didn’t make any sense because of course I’ve never seen the film! All I knew was a man found out he had a autistic brother. The...

Can it not be the end of the summer please!
Back in July I set a little challenge this summer holidays I wanted to achieve things, go places, have laughs and make memories. A few months back I didn’t know what I’d be able to do or not do, when I knew we could do anything I wanted I made my My six weeks...
A letter to Z’s teacher 2018
The last official day of the school holidays. Next week Z returns to school. He'll return to a new teacher. Its getting easier each year for me! I think Z just goes with the flow. Of course I always worry, new class new teacher and a child that can't tell me how his...
