Tales of Saarthi 7: Shivi, Suvi and Vinayak ????

I’m Vinayak’s eldest sister, Shivi. Ever since Vinayak was born, he has always been a child to me more than a younger brother.

Let me share an incident from the memory box.

Around 6 years ago… once I asked Vinayak to count how many times I wrote ‘one’ on a slate, I was giving him options on the notebook to tick, and he ticked the correct answer on the notebook without even looking at the slate. At first, I thought it was a fluke so I did the same exercise again, this time with a different number, And again he ticked the right answer. I was amazed to realize that he was counting the noise of the chalk made while I was writing!
It was that day and it is today, he still surprises me with not only his intelligence but how beautifully he is turning into a young man! Even though he has limited words to say his eyes speak volumes.
.

We are three siblings but both of us sisters shower unconditional love on him because that’s what we get in return from him. He has truly taught us so many important things in life and I’m thankful for that! If you ever meet Vinayak, you will notice he has a smile plastered to his face always no matter what he is going through, if that’s not inspiring what is?

Our family is blessed to have you, and I just want to say that your Autism always made you the most perfect brother in the world.
