hello, I never know how to do the introduction posts haha :)

my name is Jade, I'm 21, I'm from Hampshire, UK and I have 2 daughters.
my eldest daughter who is 2 (3 in april) is autistic, when she first turned 2 the Health Visitor kept picking up on things and asking questions about Eve, then made a appointment with a peadatrician, I had no idea why or what for, it was only at the end of the appointment with the pead that I found out, so it was a huge shock!
at that time she was possibly autistic, since then she's had another appt with him and has now moved up to probable autism, she has another appt this month to see how she is doing.

She can't talk, neither can she understand much, but she is a great artist, just yesterday she drew a dragon and today she learnt how to draw a tombliboo, she loves drawing smiley faces but has to get them just perfect and can also draw houses and is currently trying to do hearts as well.
She is also obsessed with numbers, she can count up to 10 and backwards from 10 and recognise numbers up to 10 as well :)

so really I'm here for support with her and a bit more understanding to her :)
