Guest guest Posted September 13, 1999 Report Share Posted September 13, 1999 Does anyone know if there are any educational computer games or programs with an ' ANNIE ' theme ? My daughter loves the music and watches the video over and over so I thought if I could get some kind of educational game she might enjoy it as she really does not like using the computer .

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2000 Report Share Posted May 22, 2000 Hi Rick and other list members, I have been reading this list for about a month now but I have never introduced myself so I figured now would be a good time. My name is and I am mother to a 13 yo autistic daughter who is higher functioning. I guess what higher functioning means these days is she is verbal, in public school (that is another story in itself) etc. I have been reading the posts and can relate to so much that many of you have written. For example, Ally used to walk on her toes, didn't like the feel of grass, is still tactile hypersensitive, apraxia,dyspraxia, cannot tolerate loud noises, her mind is a complex puzzle and so on. She is in 7th grade and academically is 3rd grade level, social skills are not age appropriate there fore her peers don't like her. She goes through a lot of pain in school and so do I. I was just awarded ESY this year after about a 4 year struggle with that. I am so glad there is a list for parents with autistic daughters. Most people I know have autistic sons. If anyone has an autistic who would like to get to know Ally and be a pen pal please feel free to have them write to her at Allygirl11@.... I think this is a great idea for our girls. I live in Warren, Ohio. Rick I think it is a wonderful thing what you have done for your daughter. They need us. Ally is very precious to me and she is a wonderful human being. I am blessed to have her as my daughter. This is just a brief overview because as you all know I can write a book and my experiences. I am glad to meet you all and will look forward to writing back and forth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2003 Report Share Posted August 18, 2003 I have no idea if that helps - but it might. How soon are you moving? Thanks for the organic info! Yes, I will certainly expect to travel for what I need, but it won't be the first time! Not sure of my move date, I am still working out details of a divorce and keep getting hung up, but hopefully in a few months. I have relatives in that area and am originally from the South. SO I look forward to being back there! You guys are such a helpful group! Jane Mama to 6 (ASD) and 3 (NT- with gut issues) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 Hi and welcome to the group. I'm glad you're here. I saw the news piece about you and your farm. I know and her children and was so happy to see that she and her daughter come visit you. I think what you're doing is wonderful. Thank you Debbie! We absolutely love it when Zana and family come visit us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 Hello, Thanks for letting me into the group! I was told initially that I was denied entry so I'm glad someone changed their minds. I just moved to Dakar, Senegal. We'd been in Stuttgart, Germany for the past 3.5 years on an American military base. Now we are working at the American embassy here. We've been here for 4 weeks now. We found the produce here to be fabulous, for the time being, except that we have to soak it all in a bleach solution before we eat it. I plan to have a square foot garden and an indoor micro garden once we move into our permanent quarters. For now I have been experimenting with the lentils available at the Lebanese grocery store. I have been putting them in a red Solo cup and draining them in a colander. I am not very good at remembering to rinse them often enough but I guess once I get into the rhythm of things I'll do better. Oh, and we have to use water from the distiller machine so It's not quite the same as running the tap water in the sink. So there you have it. Once I get my supplies I have in my house hold good and get going on this project I'll probably have lots of questions! Thanks, Darla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
