My Brother

Josh, well Josh is my brother. He is autistic. He is also 14 years old. I know he is autistic, but sometimes, he takes it too far. He tries to blame everything on just that. Some things just don't relate to that. Josh is a very loving person to everyone. (Well my Mom anyway). Every single time he walks by her he says this exact thing EVERY SINGLE TIME: Hi Mom. How was your day? Can I have a kiss? And while he says this he hugs her. Now I think this is funny, but my Mom not so much. Now, every time my Mom walks by, she says the same thing. Josh hates it on the inside but he tries so hard to make it seem like it doesn't bother him. I still think it's funny either way. I love him to death but it's so funny, some of the stuff he does. The other day, he came in the kitchen and asked what's for supper. I told him and he went in the living room for like 5 seconds and then came back in the kitchen. He asked what's for supper, plain as day. We told him again and then started cracking up. He never got it. I love him.

My First Blog

OK, this is my first blogging session. My name is Marissa Cox. I am 12 years old. I live in a small, quiet little town called Vandalia, MO. I have a pretty simple life. I live with my Mom, brother, Josh, stepbrother, Ian, and Step dad, Brian. My parents are obviously separated. Well, I am getting ideas for my next blog entry so I guess this one is over.
