I’m glad Joes doing well now. Sounds like a scary situation. Hope he stays very healthy. He’s a great guy.

[@ourdailyview]

Thank you ❤️

I love how Craig was self soothing himself while waiting for the dentist. I hate going too !❤

[@williamm.9255]

ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO!!! I LOVED PEE WEES PLAY HOUSE WAS A GIANT PART OF MY CHILDHOOD.......HEART BREAKING TO HEAR OF HIS PASSING🙏🙏🙏...AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE TAKIS!!!!! THE BLUE ONES ARE SOOOOOOOO GOOD !!!!! GOD BLESS YOU GUYS!!!!!🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙💙🇺🇸🇮🇹🇺🇸🇮🇹😁😁😁😁🙌🙌🙌☝️☝️☝️☝️

[@66EH]

I have to say this….Craig has the kindest eyes. He makes you just want to hug him. Not something I say too often since I’m a grown man lol, but he’s just such a lovable person. When I was younger, i had a young man with autism who worked for me. There was never a day that went by that he didn’t brighten my day. Even when I was having a rotten day, he could alway make me smile just by talking to him. Craig reminds me so much of that. Thank you for sharing your lives!!

[@williamm.9255]

Also The Guacamole Takis are AMAZING TOOOOOOO ALONG WITH THE INTENSE NACHO TAKIS !!!! DEFINITELY GIVE THEM A TRY !!!😁😁😁🙌🙌🙌⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm very happy you're doing well Dad Praying for the entire family everyday. You guys show and bring so much love to your channel very classy family and funny. I laughed so much when you guys showed the video when Craig found out Stephanie was pregnant.! Hilarious! 🙏🏽

[@ktelise]

Do you think Craig maybe didn’t like the blue cheese? He seemed to be ok with the lettuce at first. Plenty of people don’t like blue cheese, I t’s an acquired taste. But wow, Craig really is expanding his palette and trying a lot of new things! Proud of you Craig and good job at being so brave at the dentist! ❤ Btw, Smarties in most countries except the USA are similar to M&M’s. 😊

[@ourdailyview]

It might have been the blue cheese. Thanks for the info on the smarties 😊

[@msamuel1964]

Thanks for answering my question. I'm a lefty, as are my mum and sister, the other 2 kids are right handed. Google says, 10% of the population are lefties. I enjoy your content, it's funny how we humans like to see folk shop and eat! lol I also enjoy the detail you put into places you go and the awareness you bring to autism which helps all viewers understand better. It also helps how funny Craig is! lol

[@AuntSanny]

I'm a lefty too 😊

[@JosephFerrare]

Interesting fact, about 30% of people on the Spectrum are left handed compared to 10%

[@ourdailyview]

That’s very interesting. Thank you for sharing! I’m so happy that you’re enjoying the videos 😊

Craig was brave at the dentist, I also hate going. I think Craig was more scared of lettuce then the dentist 🤣

[@ourdailyview]

😂😂😂I think you’re right!

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

I think y’all have a unique style and I’m so happy you began your channel. I think you do a great job with your videos. I didn’t know Joe had a heart attack! Im so glad all is well now. How long ago? My husband was life flighted . It’s an amzing thing. Here in the smokies, there are many landing pda and it’s a common thing to hear it going and coming. Lots of accidents, motorcycles on tail of the dragon and other curvy mountain roads. It’s saved a lot of lives.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

I also can’t believe the prices of fast food. I don’t know how families, especially large ones, can afford it. My brother has 5 kids and I remmber we stopped at Chick-fil-A years ago and I said I’d buy lunch. It was like $80 + , like 10 years ago. Would be more now. Now with it just being myself, I eat out frequently. It’s cheaper than making some things for just me. I often get the salad bar at a big grocery store we have now. By the time I bought all the veggies and made it, I’d end up tossing a lot from going bad before I ate it all. It’s interesting times, for sure.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

I think it was the blue cheese that got Craig. He was okay until that point. I bet I’d you cut up lettuce fine, like in a chopped salad, and found a dressing he would like… put some grated cheese, sneak in some boiled egg 94 whatever you knew he would eat. Looking like it might actually be a possibility. He sure has become adventurous!

[@ourdailyview]

Thank you so much ❤️ His heart attack happened 3 years ago.

[@sherinitta1903]

Ben has always been affectionate. He loves hugs and always tells us he loves us. He is also very compassionate and caring.

Those are iconic Canadian snacks that never seem to cross the border, only if mailed to someone. I will warn you, the Thrills gum REALLY does taste like sweetened soap, it does not get better as you chew, but for some reason it sells like crazy. And yes, the hickory sticks taste smoky. They are one of my favorite potato snacks. Have a good time trying everything. Sue from Nova Scotia. PS~ it wasn't me that sent the gift box.

[@ourdailyview]

Thank you ! We will have fun trying those snacks soon 😊

[@miss.campbell1103]

Someone beat me to it sending you some Canadian snacks! I’ll have to find some other ones that you didn’t get there are lots more :). Enjoy them!

[@michaeljorgensen4873]

Hi there, I'm relatively new to your channel but you guys always look like you have such a very good time and Craig always is so intrigued and really knows what he likes for sure. I think I did find it interesting just because I do have autism as well but it's sort of on the very mild side. Keep up the great content though!

[@ourdailyview]

Thank you so much ❤️ it’s nice to meet you!

[@BraveParagon]

Joe raising the roof made me laugh out loud 😂 Praise the Lord that Joe is okay. I really do feel as though God is playing a major part in your growth. Your videos help me and I don't even know anyone who has a child or relative or anything (to my knowledge) who has autism. Your channel has taught me so much and I see the comments where folks say you help them on their journey through life with a child with autism. It's also very evident that KZbin helps your family as well. Oh what an awesome God we serve!

[@ourdailyview]

❤️❤️❤️I was actually just thinking the same thing! I feel God at work. I’m glad you’re here for the journey ❤️

[@alisonviscosi5518]

I am so thrilled about Craig's progress, it seems like every day he has progressed. He continues to try new and different foods, that's huge! And in his social skills he keeps on learning, but growing more importantly.

I don't know if there is a pattern of specific handedness with autism, but we had an unusual situation at our house as my father was left-handed( he always claimed left-handed people were more intelligent because they had to adapt to a right-handed world..lol..) my mother was right-handed. I have a brother that is right-handed and I am as well. Two brothers are left-handed. So 3 and 3. We literally had assigned seats at dinnertime so we wouldn't be bumping each other with such a group!

Going to the dentist right after Little Shop of Horrors. Yikes!

[@Java-D]

Both of my autistic boys are very affectionate and openly loving to “their people”. They don’t like other people touching them though. Being autistic myself, I’m the same way. I love big, deep hugs and cuddling from my husband or kids but don’t like anyone else in my space.

[@ourdailyview]

I think that is true of Craig also

[@galagajunkie]

I've been told by an acquaintance I've known since age 13 who raised a son with autism that he suspects I'm on the spectrum, but never been officially diagnosed. I'm also a southpaw, but broke my right arm in a compound fracture at six years old so I've always wondered how much that had to do with favoring the left.

[@ourdailyview]

That’s very interesting! Thank you for sharing 😊😊😊

[@seanvisionz]

I smiled so hard when he said “ no cavities “

[@ourdailyview]

❤️

[@Loki-and-Thor]

How does Craig cope with appointments when he’s not called in for the time the appointment is scheduled for? Do you try to get the earliest morning appointment to help with sticking to the time?

[@ourdailyview]

His appointment was actually 10 minutes late at the dentist but I think he was so nervous that he didn’t notice. Thankfully all of our appointments have been on time otherwise

[@jenniferhenry7467]

My oldest is autistic. He was a little bit affectionate as a child, but now that he is 20, he isn't at all. He also has a lot of stomach issues. My friends daughter is also autistic and she has tummy issues as well. Did Craig ever have tummy troubles?? I am left-handed, and my oldest used both right and left hands. 😊

[@ourdailyview]

That’s very interesting. Craig has gas a lot but so far no other tummy troubles. That’s definitely something to think about. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@courtneypetersen7311]

My daughter (soon to be three) is on the spectrum. She is very affectionate. She loves to cuddle! She also makes/maintains eye contact. She's still ambidextrous but we think she's going to be a lefty. I'm right handed and her dad (passed away) was left handed. My mom is left handed and my dad is right right handed. I have two brothers, both left handed. Your guess is as good as mine on those genetic odds! 😊

I’m Canadian so when Craig emptied the box of snacks I knew where they were from 🇨🇦 😀🇨🇦

[@ourdailyview]

[@marykoufalis7666]

I truly feel it was the blue cheese that turned him off because the first two pieces of lettuce he tried seemed to go over pretty well with him. I do agree $25 is quite steep but I have to say both the meals you ordered were quite plentiful. Craig's burger was massive and a huge order of onion rings and like you said your cobb salad was a full meal and then some. Everything looks quite delicious.

[@ourdailyview]

I agree 😊

[@pearlesme8561]

I am curious if Craig ever bonded with any of his teachers? He is just so easy to love. Did he also ever go to a relatives/friends home to play without you? Great job at the dentist Craig!!! 😊

[@ourdailyview]

Craig bonded with his one on one associate. He always told me that she was his friend. Craig did go to our good friends house without us but Stephanie went also. He was invited to a lot of birthday parties when he was younger but I would always go with him

[@diddlez2]

Left-handedness and mixed-handedness are more common in neurodiverse people than in the general population. About 28 percent of people on the autism spectrum are left-handers compared to 10 percent in the general population. Genes involved in brain development may link left-handedness and neurodiversity.

[@ourdailyview]

Thank you 😊
