Today was a day I really have only dreamed about. I watched Sofie walk by herself across the stage to receive her kindergarten graduation diploma.
I am SO proud of her. She has worked so hard and always gives 150%! I am so amazed by her. This is the same little girl that even 2 years ago in E.C. only wanted to play with her school bus. She had no interest in other children or what was happening around her. Autism had a hold of her.
With this intensive in home therapy she is breaking out of it and becoming the Sofie she was meant to be. The team of teachers, aides and therapists have all worked so hard with her and I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
I am so thankful for these people who are angels. To see the love and support they have for my little girl leaves me feeling so thankful and SO very blessed! They cheered right along with me, maybe even louder!!
They have encouraged her and helped helped her bloom into this beautiful flower. She turns 7 on Sunday and today she had her first birthday party with friends. 4 little girls from her class came over after school and we made mini scrapbooks and played outside and I couldn’t stop smiling! This has been one of the best days of my entire life! Thank you God! All glory to Him!
Oh how cute and proud she looks. Congratulations to both of you.You are really blessed.

Hey Sarita,
Nice blog 🙂
Congrats on Sofie's achievements. I am on facebook, too and recently joined a "walk For Autism" fund raiser and awareness group. While no one in my family has autism, a couple friends of mine have children with it. If you want, send me a friend request – marie bruley isom
I will do that Marie. Thanks so much. I will see you on Facebook.
