Parenting struggles, coping strategies, useful resources
There’s no one we love more in the world than our kids, but let’s face it—parenting is not easy. Being a parent to a special needs child is a totally new level . One that many do not understand fully till their beloved child has special needs of is affected by disability. No matter how thorough the life gets or how bumpy the read ahead is one thing’s true—there’s nothing like seeing that big smile on a child’s face to make it all worth it. Our Blog was created for parents who face similar challenges to ours are often faced with terms that are not fully understood or explained. Our blog was also created to show that not every day needs to be perfect in order to be wonderful. We provide real life examples of our daily struggles and strategies that we try to implement to make things a little bit easier so you can get back to what matters most—making precious memories with your family.
