I learned something new today -- well, I guess I just learned what it's called -- because I'm definitely a sensory seeker. I'll ride in the car with you!! I drive fast, love the window's down, and the radio on. Perfect!! :)

Sometimes, it isn't easy sitting back and biting our tongues when we watch our adult children parent! Brava to you for being open to their ways and ideas. I'm not sure which Sensory type I am. As a synesthete, I get bombarded by gustatory and olfactory sensations daily. There are times when I enjoy that, and they help me write more descriptively. But other times, I'd like to shut them down, especially when they make me crave certain foods!

That is certainly something to ponder. I suppose that like any other human trait, there is a spectrum. Like my husband said, Sometimes I am a Sensory seeker, and sometimes I'm not.

Perfect example of the child's teaching the parent. Congrats to you on being open to your daughter's input and taking it to the next level. If you were sensory sensitive you might have passed up this great opportunity to learn.
