Kara turning 16 was more than a birthday for us — it was a real milestone moment for our autism family, and I wanted to celebrate her in a way that felt big, safe, and full of joy. In this video I’m taking you along as we celebrate her Sweet 16 on a Disney cruise, soaking up the excitement, the family time, and all the little moments that mean everything when you’re parenting and supporting autistic kiddos. Seeing Kara’s pure happiness honestly had me in my feelings, because these wins don’t always come easy and I never take them for granted. You’ll get a look at our real-life family vlog style — the beautiful chaos, the proud mama moments, and why experiences like this can be so special for autistic families. I also share a bit of who we are if you’re new here: I’m Tish, a working wife and full-time working mommy of two beautiful daughters with autism, and this channel is where I share our everyday life with love and authenticity. If you’re into autism family life, milestone celebrations, and travel vlogs, this one is for you — and thank you for celebrating Kara with us.
