Night to Shine 2017
The last year with Caleb has been very difficult. There haven't been a lot of smiles. There's been a lot of tears, yelling, and screaming. But, last night, I saw more smiles on his face than I have seen in a long time, and it was all thanks to Night to Shine and the Tim Tebow Foundation! I have wanted Caleb to be able to participate in this … [Read more...]

Self Care: Weeks 3 and 4

One of the big things that … [Read more...]

Self Care: Week 1 – I Made It
If you didn't see my post last week, I posted about how important it was for special need moms (and dads) to take care of themselves, but how hard it is for us to do so. I finally had made the decision that it is time for me to do something about my staggering weight. You can read that post here. The first thing I was proud of myself about was … [Read more...]
Special Needs Mama’s and Self Care

I do monitor comments, so nasty comments will not be approved, but I will still see them and it is not okay to be mean to someone. I share this because special needs mama's and self care a lot of times seems like an … [Read more...]
Wings For Autism – 2016
On Friday, we were able to participate in a Wings For Autism (http://www.thearc.org/wingsforautism) event in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We had learned about this program a few years ago; however, there was never one in Wichita and it was never a convenient time for us to travel to take the kids. When we checked into this event, Tony was able to take the … [Read more...]
