Do you have any words of wisdom for others?
Sometimes something that looks so easy could be very difficult. I always assumed that raising child would be difficult, but not making one. I was wrong. I remember everyone has their own share of struggles, and you will get through yours.
Tell us about your little miracle!
My little boy Arihant was born on April 23, 2017 and is now 5 years old. He was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, so he doesn’t have it easy, but he is a champion in hugs. He has a sweet smile, charms people with his smile, loves jumping, running and hugs 🤗
