- Morning times are hectic most days for our family. Though we do the same things, they don't always go as planned...or RIGHT for that matter! We meet challenges and obstacles daily, often the same ones, so we are ALWAYS trying to find new ways to mitigate issues and commotion in our household. This...is just a glimpse into one of our MANY exhausting mornings!

That's right dad! You put some bass in your voice and Mikko listened! 👍❤️😊
I like that all the children were in the video ❤
❤❤❤
Yes, they're beautiful little children.
I loved the sternnes in both your voices. She responded a couple of times. When attempting to help her brush her teeth she did not want help, but you finally looked away, and she calmed herself down to allow you to help her. Keep doing it she understands, she is use to having her way. Begin to treat her more like she does not have a disability for as often as possible, because she is a toddler and they will try you anyway. Let her know she is a big girl. Give her a few big girl things to do, and see how it turns out. Mikko is going to turn some corners. It is coming!
I love how patient you both are. I also love that you still incorporate correcting her. My cousin's son is autistic. She is amazing with him. But she always says, "That doesn't mean he can act like a jerk"! 😂 ❤
Exactly 💯. As someone that works with children of all abilites, they still need boundaries and correction with patience and kindness.😊
lol your cousin is my spirit animal 😂 I had to tell my hubby just because our daughter is autistic doesn’t mean she can’t be a spoiled brat sometimes….Lol it’s perfectly fine to correct their poor behavior
@@tholi1016 So true! 🩵
@@donnittam8500 So true! Thank you for your work.!!
Great Job baby!
Dads' being present makes such a big difference in kids' lives. Very nice video!
Mikkos talking more! Good job mom and dad!
I know right
I hope this is a compliment. Shes better behaved in public than many neuro typical children I encounter. Youre all doing fantastic
You also have to remember no two autistic people are alike !! You can’t compare her because they are all different and actually are done that behave even better than her
Not all neuro typical the same hun
Everyone is different and very much so unique
She isn't neuro typical she is neuro divergent, isn't she? I may be wrong. 🤷🏼♀️
Neurotypical individuals may more easily interpret non-verbal cues, such as body language and facial expressions. Neurodivergent Communication: May include preferences for written over verbal communication, discomfort with direct eye contact, and taking statements more literally.Mar 28, 2024 I thought neurotypical was wrong. Glad I looked it up. Just to help out. ❤
As a pediatric OT, I love all this!!! No amount of therapy can equate to what you do at home. The kiddos i see whobmake the most progress have parents who carryover in the home. But this real life and I love that you both can be sensitive where needed but also firm when needed. That balance is important.
I notice is this video Mikko responds differently to her dad. When her dad speaks EF HUTTON listens aka Mikko. I notice there is no meltdown of any kind when her father’s speaks, period. I see she will test and push mom to the limit with crying and throwing temper tantrums. I definitely feel Mikko knows exactly what she’s doing and who to pull it with.
The low bass voice commands attention and is always more intimidating. Men have that advantage. As a teacher, I see it in school all the time.
You’re right she knows how to sucker her mom!!!! I can speak on this because I have a 24 yr old daughter that’s Aut and they are very aware!!!!
Most definitely....
Well, both of them can't be stern, one has to be the softer one, it makes things a lot better 😊
I have been saying same thing. Have you been blasted for it?
Happy to see you guys are working together which is truly a blessing. Mikko is doing great with her motor skills. Keep up the great job, both of you are wonderful parents. Have a great week end. Always a pleasure watching your videos!!!
For you to maintain a YT channel, raising three children with your husband and finding ways to interact with your autistic daughter is such a monumental task. I hold all of you in prayer and hope you are able to find solutions where Mikko can live a life without the stresses she deals with. Or at least for her to be able to find ways where she can handle things a bit easier. My heart goes out to you and I hope that you as her Mom finds those moments of peace where you don't get stressed out. Thank you for what you share as I am sure this helps other parents. Love you all♥♥♥
I am so happy to see all working as a team . Does Mikko, attend school. My granddaughter, started a year 13 months ago. It made a big difference in her growth. DC has the best programs for kids on spectrum. U all are an inspiration/ continue doing outstanding job.
❤
Esa misma pregunta me hice yo, que si Mikko iba al colegio?
Dad’s stern voice seems to work with Miko.
I observed that .
awesome parents with awesome children! please tell Mikko and your other children that I really enjoy watching your channel. One of the best channels on UA-cam. Thank you for the video!
There are toddler toothbrushes where you bite down on a dual silicone surface (bow or side shaped), so they can “brush” all surfaces in one go by themselves. 😄👍 I recommend them, as long as their “own” brush time doesn’t contain fluoride.
I’m super proud of Precious and hubby! Y’all look absolutely beautiful working together. Marriage is a work in progress so always give yourself grace as God gives everyone. I’m all smiles watching as God is using you as examples for others to learn from. Mekko hair is extra long and beautiful. It will soon be down her back. I love you and your family. Stay strong and always keep your heads up 🙏🏽🙌🏽❤️
I love when her dad puts base in his voice and shows he’s the man the leader.
Chris being so nice to the drive thru employees warmed my heart !!!
Keep up the good work! You are helping other parents who might be struggling with special needs children. I think you are so brave! God bless you!
You are such brilliant parents with not only Mikk being a blessing also your other two children too. You are all so very special and I hope you realise this all the hard work you put in as parents is clearly on show with how wonderful your children are. Wishing you all the very best and may you continue to live in abundance.
My 10 year old granddaughter is none verbal autistic I also calapse on my bed after just having her for 2 days and one night but she's so worth all the love and energy I have ❤
Thank you for sharing wonderful family ❤
My daughter was diagnosed with Autism this pass Tuesday. Your videos have been relatable and helpful 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
You guys are tired but you have a special bond; hold on tightly to it!!!
This site has truly helped me in understanding what is going on with my granddaughter for the past 5 years. I truly thought she was just very strong willed or had too many thoughts going on in her brain at one time. This makes me understand her even more. Blessings to ya'll for this and allowing others to see your life.
Mikko is doing such a great job with her motor skills and follow directions plus instructions too and for y’all to have a whole lot of patience too which make a big difference too so kudos to y’all for showing us y’all beautiful family on y’all channel of the UA-cam bcuz I know I truly do appreciate watching your family and thanks for the new video too bcuz I be waiting on it too and god bless
Beautiful job Dad and Mommy and Mikko❤❤
That's right Dad show some love and kindness to Precious because you're both in this tough journey together. Blessings to you!❤
You editing the music to that “mischievous song “ is what made me laugh 😂 HER FATHER, has this in the BAG she takes correction to him FAST. Mom you’re just as great!
The love your family has is so inspiring.
Mom, have you ever addressed why Mikko is not in school or therapy? And if you are in the process or plan to have her assessed so she can begin school?
She’s 3..
@@tatyanaportela that's my point! 3 is the age to get your child in school to get these special services free of charge, that Mikko obviously needs.
@@aliciamoore963 minimum age for school is 5 ma’am..
@@tatyanaportela ma'am I've worked with special needs students for 20 yrs. I think I would know what I'm talking about. 5 is the required age for kinder. Kids as young as 3 can start general ed preschool or special education preschool.
You need to walk with sanitiser for her as she is touching things and putting her finger in her mouth
I’m so proud of you both and I know the Lord with continue to guide you both
I love how yall work together.
It makes things better when you're Married to the Right person. That's how people can continue to work things out.
God bless yall Marriage.
I love all that you guys do to help miko. Girl you need to think about opening a school for the autistic kids because you are have been blessed with patience ❤❤❤❤❤❤
You are both the best . I am a professional/licensed therapist. Do not forget each other through this journey . God bless you and your family .
Great things are coming ))))❤
Trust.
You two have a wonderful parenting style of teamwork, patience, and consistency. More importantly, it is filled with love and expectations. She can only thrive in the intentional atmosphere you've set together! The older children are beautiful too!
I almost cried when her dad stayed and slept by her bedside.😢🙏😊
So glad to see other children and interactions!
Yes,mom let her be upset your doing a great job Continue to correct her.
You are determined and consistent parents. Structure is key. Keep up what you’re doing 👍🏻
I love that you guys are doing such a good job with her❤
You two are excellent parents. Blessings to you both 🙏🏾
I don't know if you're told this often you're an amazing woman mother and nurturer
You guys are all so good together! Amazing job. : )
What great parents you both are. Mikko is blessed to have the two of two. Mikko is making remarkable progress. Love to your family.
Yall are such a loving family.
the thumbnail made me laugh in a good way i had a bad week which made me think about my existence but your channel makes me happy
You guys are amazing. I can see how much of a struggle mentally it is for you guys but you’re doing amazing. ❤
"A What" That was so funny your facial expression were priceless
I'm glad you have help with her. You look so tired. And alittle stress. I think you should enroll her into a school so you can have a peace of mind. And alittle me time. Because you dont want to be burned out. I have a niece who is autistic she goes to school from 8 to 3.
❤❤i almost cried a little cuz i rly see the toll this is taking on you guys but you won't give up on your angel and that makes me so happy. You definitely "make it work" and i pray things will get better❤❤❤❤❤❤
Mikko is such a Daddy’ Girl 😅❤
Poor Mom, seems like she could use a nice vacation, but I'm not gonna lie, i had a good little chuckle when Miko slapped her in the face with her ponytails and the sound effect that came right after @2:35🤯🤓
I am really enjoying your videos. I only wish I could have seen these videos when I had my special needs premiere baby. She had a lot of gross, fine motor delays,speech delay and sensory issue. I had a lot of services provided to my daughter thru that state of New York, but just like you as a parent I put in the work with my child and support all the way. There is no way she will as far as she is if I didn't. Some said harsh things that she will never make out of public school. But I didn't listen them I just kept working with my child. I am here to said she in her third year of college with a 3.0 GPA with a major in English. She wants to be a writer of books. I am so glad I never gave up on what God can do. Each one of us was born with a purpose to glorify God.
God made sure he paired this baby up with beautiful,caring,patient & loving parents. Miko is one lucky little girl & y’all are even luckier or shall I say BLESSED. 💜💚♥️🧡❤️. Videos like this teach me much needed patience.
You guys are great parents ❤
I can’t believe how tall Mikko is! Your family is doing so well 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
OMG your children are absolutely GORGEOUS! Y'all are such a GOOD LOOKING FAMILY ❤❤❤❤❤
Seeing dad help mum with mikko made my heart sing. ❤❤❤❤❤
Look at Mikko!!! Growing and thriving!!!! 🤍🤍
Awww Miss Mikko be growing up right before our eyes🥰🥺
Thank you Dad!
You two are so amazing, as parents. Love your channel.
I love the texture of your older girls hair!❤
I loved this video. What a beautiful family and loving mother.
I really love to see y’all working together with Mikko! 🥰 Great Job 👏🏽
I also pray 🙏🏽 that y’all Do Not divorce n divide the unity she needs! We need to see this so other men have someone to guide them through the same or similar situation! ( I say men bc most women don’t choose to leave).
Wow. Great job family. You are teaching us so much about love and patience 💖💖💖💖
I admire you both very much! May God Bless you, ease your Cross and give you more love for one another and lots of patience. You are both wonderful parents and people. ❤
I’m so excited for Mikko !! Cheers to both of you, job well done!! 💖🤗
I’m loving the participation from both of you I hope yu guys are working on you I pray for the best
Teamwork makes a dream come true. I
Hello 👋🏽. Have a blessed weekend everyone.✌🏽🫶🏾
You are both amazing parents. Really proud of you guys ❤
This was so beautiful to watch.. I didn’t want it to end ❤
Momma ur doing fantastic 👏 ✨️ and she's so bright and very regulated. She has amazing parents.
Dad put that base in his voice lil mamma moved quickly out of that cart stall lol
Love you ❤mikko everytime when I’m watching mikko videos I feel happy ❤😊I don’t know she’s cute 🥰 bless you mikko
Dad takes care of the other kids they good kids understanding their sisters needs.
Mikko does a ton better with 7:00 wakeup calls than I do with 11:00. I've worked 2nd and 3rd shift jobs basically my entire career.
You guys are doing an amazing job! 🫡🙏🏾❤️
You guys are great in raising your children, especially your autistic daughter. Mom I know you are extremely tired, but I see that she responds to dad when he smiles and when he has a stern voice. She is a very smart and talented little girl and it seems like she responds to the emotions you and your husband gives.
You are wonderful parents to your daughter Niko may you keep growing in blessings 🙏🦋❤
7:45 I probably could have used this. I had fine and gross motor difficulties that were pointed out in preschool, but my mom's attitude was "I had motor issues as a toddler and I'm fine", so I didn't end up in OT until my handwriting in elementary school turned out unacceptably bad.
You guys are amazing and so is Mikko
Mikko’s starting to talk more!!
Omg that video was so cute especially the ending.. you guys are the best. Love the videos❤
Mikko is so so smart and cute
Some Items i think you need (from my experience of sensory issues)
1. Noise, cancelling headphones
When it is toothbrush is my press the button and then you like the city except that like and I don’t feel it
She has noise canceling headphones but she doesn’t like to wear them. I’ve tried to help her understand what they are for but she just doesn’t like much of anything on her head. We’ve tried a few but nothing has helped so far. Hopefully that changes in the future.
@@thegentlelifeOk good ot know and get a numbing toothbrush tahts my 2ed request
Perfect ending!!! Mikko's ankles are getting stronger, see how much control she has while walking? 🌹🌺🪻🥀🌼🌻 To y'all for learning how to work better together. ❤
I just about fell out when Mikko tooth the path of least resistance when she just walked a circle around the blocks instead of zig zag! 😅😅😅
Great video & very informative! Thank you for sharing a day in your life with us! So proud of Mikko & how far she’s come 🎉 also thank you for letting me know my 3 yr isn’t the only one giving a hard time to brush their teeth😅
Maybe you could show you and your husband spending time with the other children.
You two are amazing parents May God bless and keep you ❤🙏
You two are blessed. 🙏🏽
I feel so protective of you and your family. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hang on god bless the both of you .
Most kids her age don’t like taking naps. It’s normal.
Awesome Video So Beautiful I Wish More Parents was Like You Two With Autism Children It Means A Lot When Two Works Together So One Don’t Burn Out Good Job You Two 💕🌹💕
I swear me n my son have the exact moments when brushing his teeth....but once the toothbrush is in his mouth, it's smooth sailing from there.😅
Iam so impressed with Mikko's improved speech. She'll be talking your ear off soon
Mikko is doing great!
One thing I notice is that you always talk to her like she’s in trouble. You aren’t playful, don’t smile and engage her in a fun manner, and just bark orders at her. It shows in the way she responds to you too.
She listens to your husband because she can tell the difference of when he’s playing and when he’s serious. He smiles at her, he engages and plays along with her very playful energy, he looks at her so sweetly and just goes with her flow. So when he does have to correct her, she understands by the change in his voice and facial expressions.
It seems as though you are burnt out and just going through the motions with her. You smiled and giggled more with the drive through lady than you did with your husband or child.
I’m autistic with an autistic son. I understand the burnout and hard moments. If you need to take a step back for some self care, do it! Let Mikko go to preschool where she can have fun and do therapy with other children and teachers so you can have a break several times a week. 😊
I think you need to realize that the mom is also autistic, and that sometimes autistic people don't have the same tone of voice. I never take it as her being mad or barking orders more than a typical mom though 🤷
Did you consider maybe she was masking more with the takeout lady?
@@sianmilne4879I do understand this. I am autistic as are some of my children and other family members.
I agree that part of this could be autism which is why I pointed it out. Sometimes we don’t see things like this until we look back and realize it and process what’s going on. I wasn’t being mean, I was showing my observation.
I also think a big part of it is being tired and burnt out. I can see, hear, and feel that it’s more than autism bluntness. It’s overwhelm and needing a break and some time to regroup.
I really don't think this is a claim that you could make off of this video. Between the toothbrushing, shopping cart, and therapy clips, Mikko complied typically no differently between parents based on the tone of voice used. I feel like you're confusing clips of actual play (none with Mom displayed here anyways) versus clips where compliance is more necessary (hygiene, getting out of the street, etc.). Mom also previously made a video explaining that a gentler approach for learning and understanding with Mikko has not been working with them or for her development anymore. I think this kinda shows when both parents are displaying neutral affects during therapy (besides during reinforcement), instead of "play time." Based off of previous videos, it seems like with this approach Mikko is able to differentiate play/child led activities from adult led activities as necessary, a little better.
Also, claiming that you can "see, hear, and feel" this is more than her autism bluntness can come off as very tone deaf, whether it's right or wrong. Does Mom seem a little off in this video compared to previous videos/shorts? Sure. Does that mean we should question her parenting and claim we know what she's going through? Absolutely not. I understand this comment was probably made with good intentions, but it surely doesn't come off that way.
I agree
@@babygukie3975she does it in many other videos.
Great job, I see progress
You have beautiful children ❤️
