I’ve been going through a hard time and not a day goes by that y’all don’t make my day.. thank you for making my dark times a little bit brighter. **thank you all who commented and who are praying for me it means a lot to me**
i have times like that too, i love to watch the family get all together it makes me smile. hope your dark thoughts don't do the better of you Mixhelle Mele i hope you have a great life like everyone else do your best in life.
I'd enjoy seeing a Q&A with Becca, where we get to know more about her. She's in so many vlogs and we know so little about her. I think it'd be nice to do a feature on her and her personal/work life. Like a "get to know Becca". :]
Abbie requests popcorn Priscilla “no we aren’t having popcorn” *as I’m shoveling popcorn in my mouth* Priscilla “no popcorn. It’s 9:45” *checks time and it’s **9:48* 👀👀👀👀 I feel like I was there lol
I have a nine year old daughter, and I've had to force myself to step back on a lot of things. Since she is my youngest right now, I've found myself doing too much for her that she can do on her own. We do have to step away to foster independence, but I agree that it is difficult sometimes.
Abby- tap tap Dad-“ what” Abby- signs break Dad- “break? Break from what?” Abby- taps dad Dad- “what you need a break from me?” I relate SO MUCH. I laughed so hard when she did that...autism or not, she is a young lady who needs her time alone lol 😂 . Her dad was a little hurt lol but I was so proud of how she communicated exactly what she wanted.
My heart exploded with happiness when Abbie cut the papee! If my heart had captions it would have been screaming what Cilla said! Awe I just love y'all!❤❤🎄👨💻👩🏼🍳👨🎓👸🏽
I just love how innocent Abby ACTS innocent after telling Asa she wants him to be quiet or leave. Lol I never get tired of watching her blow us away with how far she’s come.
I absolutely believe that real world application helps people to know what to do. For example, when I was a nanny, I took the kids with me everywhere I went. Every errand I had to run for the house, the children went with me. At first, the youngest didn’t know how to behave, but it took taking him to the store, to restaurants, to the library, and to the post office multiple times for him to realise how to act in public. Yes he has ASD, but he did learn that not EVERYTHING goes into the grocery cart and not EVERYONE’s plate is his to eat off of. So yes, I cried when Abbie wrapped the present, just like I cried when Z took his plate to the sink for the first time, rinsed it, and put it in the dishwasher. It’s the small things that make us cry because we know that they are learning. Sure it takes some longer than others to learn how to do things, but with enough love, patience, and coffee, the important things can be taught.
Asa, I love that you are very involved in Abby's development and try to help Pric all the time. Trying to step back a little so to let Pric help Abby also, is just awesome.
Abbie wrapping presents makes me smile with so much joy, and super proud. She’s not even my child, and I’m not a parent, but seeing all the progress she’s making everyday is so amazing and heartwarming. ♥️
Asa you’re doing a great job. For every negative comment out there (of which there are few!)...just know there’s a whole community who loves you and your family. Don’t let the haters get ya down! Much love from Canada.
I love watching y'all! It brings Autism Awareness into my life and if i see someone out in public, i know not to stare and get angry. It is just who they are! My three year old twins love watchin y'all!! They love Abbie and think she is the freaking cutest!
I love watching yall do life skills with Abbie like wrapping the gift for her friend it let's me know what I can do with my 2 boys on the spectrum thanks so much
The present wrapping Abbie did with you Precilla was such a proud moment. I so clapped in excitement and cheered as I mum I could see your proud mummy moment I don't you guys will forget that moment for a long time ❤️❤️ I'm so happy for you guys
Our girl has came a long way ..im so proud of you abbie .mom and dad you make me proud also you to Isaiah ..yall make me proud ..i love your family so much
You're a great Dad Asa, the love for your family is obvious. Your daughter inspires me every day. Watching her wrap that present made me cry too Priscilla!! She's such a beautiful soul.
The amount of patience & persistence required to motivate, cajole & persuade Abbie to complete a task is exhausting to watch...let alone actually do! I'm in awe of Priscilla & Asa's stamina & upbeat attitudes!
So proud of Abby! Truly amazing! Autism parents celebrate any accomplishment that may seem small to other parents, as if our child won a championship game bc it is a huge accomplishment for them & they deserve praise!
Asa it's ok to try to help...as a father myself I know what it's like to want to be the hero...but sometimes we have to set back and watch the amazing qualities our kids have...Abby is such an amazing little lady...you have a wonderful family...and we are all thankful for the vidoes.... especially me and my wife.....our oldest is 3 and he's on the spectrum....our youngest is 2 and they still have to test him...but they believe he is also on the spectrum....we are literally still new to the spectrum world...I know exactly how you feel when you are proud of a accomplishment....I know how you feel when you feel adgitated....watching these vidoes is sort of like watching our little family....I watch these vidoes everyday to try to learn more....thank you to your family for taking time to make these vidoes...it's a big help to people who doesn't understand, like myself....we all want to learn more.
I love how Asa asked if Priscilla was going to leave the present the way it was, and as soon as he heard the tone in her voice he immediately said OKAY! Smart man 😂
I'm sure your mom is very proud of you...more than you will ever know....mabey she just doesn't know how to show she is proud....your mom loves you til the end of time...even if she doesn't show it...
Everyone's mother feels that way. Some people just express it differently. If you truly feel like your mother or your parents aren't proud of you, you should definitely talk to them about it. I'm sure they'd love to reassure you!
@@jesussaves6625 I'm 26 from canada and my parents hate me they try everything they can to hold me back in life and take from me every chance they get. Some people truly are evil on this planet and nobody is stopping them from having children
My husband and myself have different relationships with our SN daughter. She’s 7 and has CP.....I’m the tough one. She’s very verbal and we’re fortunate enough that her physical disability isn’t major, but enough that we deal with a lot others don’t. I’m the tough, like “no ma’am!” one.....(we’re in Alabama, southern style parenting!) Dad is the fun one, she’s a daddy’s girl, but when she’s not listening to me in a discipline or instructional situation, she usually listen better to him. We also have our mom/daughter moments where we have fun! Abbie....I related so much on wrapping presents....it’s the WORST girl! 🤣 Love seeing her progress 😍😍
Awsome job Abbie IAM so proud of her progress yes we always try so hard to work with all our kids on doing thangs and I have seen so much progress in doing thangs like counting and communication with others and thangs that would be easy to us is hard to them but they have come so far
How dare anyone hurt asa’s feelings!! I personally apologize for anyone who hurt your feelings asa btw I cried as well watching her wrap her presents lol she loves jojo
I love watching you guys. I watch your channel every day. My husband will here Abbie yell and say.” You watching your TH-cam family again?” Thank you for putting your real life out there! I’m a Child and Youth Worker and continue to learn from you guys and your interactions with Abbie! Merry Christmas to you guys. Love your family! P.S. Pricilla you look fantastic!
I watched your show every day and I was in special Ed and I had a lot of challenges to go through.but with my family and friends and teachers help I mad it .I am now 62 years old and living on my own.
Sweet Asa! Listen, you are self aware, and work hard at looking at ways that you can improve. That in and of itself is admirable! I actually loved that moment because you caught yourself over helping:-) I, like you, want to jump in and help, and sometimes my daughter ( she’s a neuro typical teenager) will have to remind me to take a step back:-). You’re an amazing husband and father and I appreciate you.
Asa, thank you for being so honest and open. It is hard to step back and let someone else struggle if you think you can fix it. I love yall and love seeing your videos pop up every evening.
Debbie Downer over there lol if Priscilla didnt buy them someone else would have what's the difference they're still getting the same money for them it's just all at one time 🤷♀️ people are interesting lol
As a 35 year special ed administrator and educator, thanks for stressing the follow- through at home with ADL skills. You are right Asa, classroom isn’t like home and, even though it’s time consuming , every child should help out at home. Independence doesn’t happen when it’s just taught at school. God bless all of you, and especially Isaiah who always is there for his sis. Going to be hard when they are separated for college. Happy Holidays and thanks for putting a smile on my face every day. Lost my pop in September and feeling down, but I smile when the posts come through. Thanks for that.
Asa, that's just parenting. I was primary care giver and disciplinarian and it is difficult to take that step back and let others take charge. But in the end, it is so worth it. It truly lifts some of the responsibilities and stress you feel when you are constantly "on". Abbie has made so much progress and you are a big part of that. But Priscilla needs the chance to do the same. I love seeing Abbie's progress and you and Priscilla are a testament to that.
Way to go Abbie that was so awesome to see you did a great job cutting the wrapping paper I was smiling so big!!!! Love ya guy's so much you guy's are a great family and I love watching you guys!!!!
Love love how Asa gives a speech on himself being more hands off, and then makes her get up and use more effort, it's just the super fixer dad in you!! :)
I thought about that piece of vlog where you said you needed to let Abbie and Cilla work through things without you. My reaction was - wow, having that insight and being vulnerable enough to share that is powerful. I’ve actually thought of it several times since I saw it. Do you know how special that is? You rock, Asa. That’s one reason I watch your vlogs.
This is my sons account but anyway... I watch these vlogs everyday on my lunch break at work. I work in childcare btw. Today, this video made me burst into tears and so I had to explain to everyone why I was crying. I don’t ubeer stand you’re exact story but my son has been through a lot too and so I understand the joy of seeing your child do something that’s very difficult for them. That success is beautiful and I thank you for sharing that joyful and raw moment with the world. P.s. your videos are insanely helpful in my field since we often see children with different abilities. I’ve learned from you all that treating them as though they are just like everyone else is both helpful and meaningful. Thank you for helping me be a better teacher and influencer of young minds. All my love, J-lynn
You both are such fine examples of how to parent! Patience having its perfect work so you are perfect and entire wanting nothing! Blessings! SugarPlum decided that Nala was honorary helper! 🥰
Got my ornament from Abbie today! It’s beautiful! Thank you guys so much for doing this! Happy to have a piece of your special girl in my home and on my tree! Hope your holiday is as awesome as you are!
If you all possibly have a Costco card, you can get 100 stamps at a discount..They are actually cheaper than getting them at the Post office & then you can get a lot at a time😉
I love how Priscilla guides Abbie while showing her how to do new things. Abbie did so amazing wrapping that gift 💕 Also I’m now craving peanut butter for some reason after watching this. Why tho? 🤔😂
Been watching for about year now seem like Abbie as got a little better with everything little in life we all do everyday I am crying great job miss Abbie ❤️🎁
Tears of joy seeing my gurl friend wrap that present, when I say I live for Abbie, I’m extremely SERIOUS ‼️‼️‼️ I love u guys sooooo much💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
She did... in Nala's arms. They were having a playdate - or, in this case, a sleepover. Nala needs a little buddy to keep her company and Sugar Plum is the perfect fit! Maverick talks back or reacts too much, it seems; Nala seems to need somebody she can boss around. Hahaha!
Just love you all and what a great job you do with Abbie. She's an amazing young girl. I learned about Autism from watching your channel. It shined on something I knew little about. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New year. Wish you all the best in 2020 . And Congratulations to Isiah for getting into college. God bless all of you.
Hey guys love watching you guys with my mom I’ve got a developmental delay and love learning new thing everyday I was wondering where I can send something for you all
Brendon hamilton they normally don’t say where to send things to them personally so I’m not too sure if they have a P.O. Box or anything anymore. But in the video description there is usually links to a Patreon, two different merchandise links and links for their social media. I hope this helps some :)
awwwww that big grin when Abs cut the paper...how beautiful...and i almost sook every time you experience these firsts xoxo...thank you so much for sharing it all with us...awwww Nala snugglin with Sugar Plum....big hugs n love...
Totally talk in gifs with my friend. Full conversations lol Its a thing😆 On another note: Great job Abbie with the gift wrapping and great job Asa for going with the flow of the wrapping. I know you guys try not to put too many demands on Ab at home after working so hard at school, but I do think its important to incorporate those same skills at home. Parenting is always a learning curve, but you guys are doing great!!
Aww Asa that was quite sad. Your the best dad and husband and a fixer upper. It's hard to not get involved. I just wish one day I get to meet you as I watch every video and it feels like family. Priscilla is so cute being so proud of Abbie. Well done Abbie !!. I hope you all have an amazing xmas and new year x

i love the way Priscilla always matches her earrings to her blouse. just like my mother did! love it!

Hillary I sort of felt abit sorry for her in this vlog tbh. Maybe she didn’t mind but seemed like she was pushed out abit.
Abbie requests popcorn
Priscilla “no we aren’t having popcorn”
*as I’m shoveling popcorn in my mouth*
Priscilla “no popcorn. It’s 9:45”
*checks time and it’s **9:48*
👀👀👀👀 I feel like I was there lol
Read this right at 9:45 eating crunch a munch 😂
i think its natural when you see your kid struggling that your first instinct is to help right away...i struggle w that too.
Me too. I always want to jump in and help.
I have a nine year old daughter, and I've had to force myself to step back on a lot of things. Since she is my youngest right now, I've found myself doing too much for her that she can do on her own. We do have to step away to foster independence, but I agree that it is difficult sometimes.
Abby- tap tap
Dad-“ what”
Abby- signs break
Dad- “break? Break from what?”
Abby- taps dad
Dad- “what you need a break from me?”
I relate SO MUCH. I laughed so hard when she did that...autism or not, she is a young lady who needs her time alone lol 😂 . Her dad was a little hurt lol but I was so proud of how she communicated exactly what she wanted.
My heart exploded with happiness when Abbie cut the papee! If my heart had captions it would have been screaming what Cilla said! Awe I just love y'all!❤❤🎄👨💻👩🏼🍳👨🎓👸🏽
Watching Abbie smile so big and genuinely while she wrapped the gift made me cry I love her sm

Awww Abbie did great wrapping her gift for her classmate!
I refuse to say “jif” for “gif”!!! Hard G! Lol
I say it in Dutch. So with a horrible G. We don't pronounce G als een J or Hard G, but with our throath as if you are choking. Hahahaha
DEFINITELY G not J
Jessica Patterson I thought maybe I was saying it wrong with the G....LOL.
You don't say Jraphice.. it's Graphics Interchange Format.. there for G not J
Same. Every time Asa said jif I said Gif 😬
I love watching y'all! It brings Autism Awareness into my life and if i see someone out in public, i know not to stare and get angry. It is just who they are! My three year old twins love watchin y'all!! They love Abbie and think she is the freaking cutest!

Lol when Asa says “ I can tell you’re really into this activity” as Abbie puts her head down on the kitchen island!
Struggling with my daughter and her changing “attitude “ & her life in general. Thank you for 20ish min. Of sweetness I NEED it today. 💜 the p. J.’s

I can relate 😊
🤣🤣🤣🤣 HAHA!! i can relate to that and then banana, noo miss i past bed time, bana..bana...banana 🤣🤣🤣
Popcorn ... a girl after my own heart, LOL. Great job Abbie wrapping her friends gift, it sure made me smile.

When Asa tried carrying the boxes and the camera at the same time, it made me laugh so hard.

And your generosity towards others is incredible.💖💖💖💖💖
Great job Abbie wrapping the present for your friend. Your parents are so proud
Ohhhh the kitty kitty at the end with sugar plum was too cute!!!!! My heart melted!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Way to go Abbie that was so awesome to see you did a great job cutting the wrapping paper I was smiling so big!!!! Love ya guy's so much you guy's are a great family and I love watching you guys!!!!

I love how Priscilla guides Abbie while showing her how to do new things. Abbie did so amazing wrapping that gift 💕 Also I’m now craving peanut butter for some reason after watching this. Why tho? 🤔😂
Great Job Abbie!! Loved seeing her wrap that gift!! Heck she can wrap better then me! LOL! Love from Idaho!! ❤️
Cilllllla! Just popping in to say you look incredible. Y’all make us without families feel like we have someone, thank you! 💜
Been watching for about year now seem like Abbie as got a little better with everything little in life we all do everyday I am crying great job miss Abbie ❤️🎁
Hope everyone has a great day!!!🤗😊😀
Tears of joy seeing my gurl friend wrap that present, when I say I live for Abbie, I’m extremely SERIOUS ‼️‼️‼️ I love u guys sooooo much💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
It's the little things in life that makes our hearts melt. 🧩🎄💕
Amazing job Miss Abbie and so happy that you had that experience with her!!! Love from Ohio!
I wish sugurplum would show up miss her 💖❄️
Hannah Llewellyn me too! Looks like her and the cat have a “thing”. 😂
She did. LOL
She did... in Nala's arms. They were having a playdate - or, in this case, a sleepover. Nala needs a little buddy to keep her company and Sugar Plum is the perfect fit! Maverick talks back or reacts too much, it seems; Nala seems to need somebody she can boss around. Hahaha!
I laughed so much that Abbie said she needed a break from Asa! She was like dad please. So cute! I love you guys!
Well done, Abby! Have a wonderful holiday guys. Fingers crossed Sugar Plum survives Nala’s cuddles.😄
Nala is tooooo cute!
Good job Abbie! I LOVE wrapping gifts. AWE SUGARPLUM LOVES your kitten!!!! LOVE and PRAYERS ALWAYS from Gainesville Florida!
Abby: Break
Asa: You need a break? From what?
*Abby points to Asa*
Asa: You need a break from me? 😧
Just love you all and what a great job you do with Abbie. She's an amazing young girl. I learned about Autism from watching your channel. It shined on something I knew little about. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New year. Wish you all the best in 2020 . And Congratulations to Isiah for getting into college. God bless all of you.
Priscilla, your ring is beautiful! Haven’t seen you wear one much before. Abbie did such a great job wrapping the present! ❤️
Abbie so chill with her leg up on the chair and all while wrappingher friends gift, lol..I love u girl! Ur awesome! Xoxoxo
Hey guys love watching you guys with my mom I’ve got a developmental delay and love learning new thing everyday
I was wondering where I can send something for you all
Brendon hamilton they normally don’t say where to send things to them personally so I’m not too sure if they have a P.O. Box or anything anymore. But in the video description there is usually links to a Patreon, two different merchandise links and links for their social media. I hope this helps some :)
At one point they removed their po box address because they didnt want to encourage people sending them gifts
They used to have a P.O. Box but it got too hectic so they closed it for the time being. :)
awwwww that big grin when Abs cut the paper...how beautiful...and i almost sook every time you experience these firsts xoxo...thank you so much for sharing it all with us...awwww Nala snugglin with Sugar Plum....big hugs n love...
Great job wrapping the present Abbie. Merry Christmas Maass Family!!!
Totally talk in gifs with my friend. Full conversations lol Its a thing😆
On another note: Great job Abbie with the gift wrapping and great job Asa for going with the flow of the wrapping. I know you guys try not to put too many demands on Ab at home after working so hard at school, but I do think its important to incorporate those same skills at home. Parenting is always a learning curve, but you guys are doing great!!
Aww Asa that was quite sad. Your the best dad and husband and a fixer upper. It's hard to not get involved. I just wish one day I get to meet you as I watch every video and it feels like family. Priscilla is so cute being so proud of Abbie. Well done Abbie !!. I hope you all have an amazing xmas and new year x
