🎄 To Our Autism Famz: New Traditions Are OK! 🎄
Hey famz, just a little love note to say—it’s totally OK if your Christmas looks different. ❤️ Maybe it’s quiet time in PJs, nuggets instead of a roast, or unwrapping presents at your own pace. Whatever works for your family is perfect!
The heart of Christmas is love, joy, and togetherness, celebrating the prince of PEACE — you don't have to be trying to do Christmas “right.” You’re creating special memories that matter most, just by celebrating in your own way.
You’re doing amazing—we see you, we love you, and we’re cheering you on! 💖 Merry Christmas, your way! 🎅💙

If family and friends don't quite understand if you're not coming to a certain event or they feel like you're being a bit 'precious' - just live in hope that they'll 'get it' in time and make decisions to guard and keep your peace ... even if that means staying home

Before the mad rush of Merry Christmas messages across the social media waves - wishing you all a Merry Christmas as we celebrate - Immanuel - God with us! As we celebrate the gift God allowed to walk this earth - Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace!!
Enjoy this old classic sung by the amazing Praise and Worship Leaders of our House, my beloved hubby Sam Tyj, the beautiful, tender hearted Sia Asiata and the mighty Jnrandpip Ulu ❤

Much love from the Fuataga Famz of the Nui 😛

Not a blame game just to be discerning and ready for conversations that need to be had to address stuff 🥰🌺

Shout out to my travel buddies 😂 omg they’re a crack up … the banter is next level … I know I’m blessed to have them …
23 years ago they travelled from New Zealand 🇳🇿 to Japan 🇯🇵 for the birth of their grandson Jade - this week they traveled to Australia 🇦🇺 to meet their great-grandson, Jade’s son.
Thank you mum and dad for always being there … not long after Jade was born my marriage ended and I was a solo mum, it was my mum and dad that came to support me - mum lived with me in Japan for a season while I started an English school franchise out of our apartment … dad was in NZ working. They lived apart until they knew me and Jade would be ok …
They’ve been there for each of their grandchildren and they are blessed to still have them - we remind them often how they are blessed they have both their grandparents some kids don’t ever meet or have a relationship with their grandparents …
and on that note - these few days with my parents have been somewhat challenging and stretched my patience 😂 but it made me realise just how much my sister Liz Nanai aka their flatmate does - love you sis … after spending just a few days with them I realise you are much stronger than I gave you credit for 😉🤪🤣 I am continually reminded of my friends and family whose parents have passed 🫶🏽❤️and just how much I should cherish this time and give them the honour and respect they deserve …
even if I have to be asked the same questions ⁉️⁉️ over and over and when I feel like I still have my young kids here with me in how o have to pay attention and keep them safe 🥹🥰 and tell them not to take off from where I’ve asked them to wait 😂 almost lost my dad on our first day …

🌺Ephesians 6:1-3
Children and Parents
6 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2 “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: 3 “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”
