Doing it in this day and age carries more weight than when we (myself) were growing up. I saw this on Instagram this morning and thought I would share. So if you know anyone that could use this for their kiddos for Halloween please feel free to share. Check out the Beginning blog…

It’s not like I’m kin to the queen of any country or some Nobel prize winner. Of course they are human too. Just because they did something the world knows about or went through something they at the end of the…

Originally posted 2015-07-20 20:11:27. As a single mother I struggled just to keep food on the table.

Anyone have suggestions or things you may do to aid your kids? He graduated high school (2013) and well doesn’t do things like this anymore. Not on a regular anyway. There aren’t many things for these kids that graduate…

It has been a very trying time considering my 21-year-old son has decided to take on actions of younger children to teens. Since my daughter has been away in college he hasn’t seen much of her. He was so used to having her by his…

As we all know there isn’t that perfect manual for us to guide us through the challenges that parenting presents. For me, since I have a “normal” one and a special needs one I had to throw out any previous ideas I had on how to do things. Not dramatically different but in a lot…

To start off the new year a very close family friend’s husband of 28 years passed away. He had been suffering from ALS. He passed on January 2, 2015. His wife is such an overwhelmingly loving person who we were honored to connect with back…
