I'm proud of you, very positive attitude. My daughter is four yrs old, and she don't know she's autistic, which I just found out,and she has a little sister is two. Hope she too would understand like you someday.
My daughter same like yours, she's beautiful, very kind, and sweet. Pretty smile, calm, quiet, and appreciates small things. She's very bright, loves to read, draw, and can write her name, and read big letters, very smart, and loves music, and music instruments. I'm now trying to find more ways to help her improve herself, right now she needs help talking in sentences and communicate.
Autism is very well hidden, alot of people don't see it right away or none at all. Autism people will do odd things but just can't help it, and don't understand in lot of things, sometimes they can't express feelings, as like in pain, or don't feel good or if someone got hurt they just smile and don't mean to in that way.
You're a good person, bless you. You take care of her now, she is lucky to have someone like you that has a good heart.
