    Erica, the page is absolutely beautiful. I’m so glad that you are feeling better. You sound more like yourself today (no criticism meant❤). I teach high school, and I have noticed a trend among the students to just say very insensitive and inappropriate things and they are just joking. Unfortunately, they see nothing wrong with what they are saying, but their words come across as hurtful. Often, I am shocked by the kids saying it, because they really are sweet kids overall. The cause is complex, I believe. I think it is a combination of social media, busy lifestyles, unawareness of parents, etc. I don’t want to keep blaming COVID lockdowns on the problem, but it didn’t help. When I hear them, I address it, but they see nothing wrong with their comments. As for your sweet daughter, all I know to tell you is to keep encouraging her and helping her to know herself and to appreciate who she is. I’m sorry I don’t have any more advice to offer you than that.😢 Have a great weekend, and I look forward to the color along video.❤🤗

    So happy you're doing better. ❤ As far as the little one... my granddaughter is on the spectrum and we see the same things as you. My best suggestion would be to role play making new friends with her. Even if she's content the way things are.... it wouldn't hurt as a "just in case" scenario. 😊🤗🥰

    Love how the background turned out. I’ve done the erasing of white circles technique before, but I didn’t add back colored circles. I’m going to try that next time. Guess I’ve got to go get a circle stencil! Lol

    So glad to hear you are feeling better Erica! This page is beautiful. I have one Eloise Fowler book - can’t remember what it’s called now but it’s a spring theme off the top of my head - I may need to pull it out after watching this ❤

    Beautiful picture!❤ So glad you are feeling better. 😊 I think if and when it starts to bother your daughter, look for a solution. Otherwise, just keep an eye and ear out. Just my opinion.
