Children, aren’t they adorable? They steal our hearts and are perfect at everything, in our eyes. We know that we can mold these children to be respectful and responsible. But my how fast they grow. My oldest child is a young adult but the other three are teenagers. I feel like I woke up to a different child. I know, I...

I always try to live each day as a new fresh start. Another day of adventure and experience. I try so hard not to let the thoughts of what if creep into my thoughts. It isn't as easy as it sounds. I usually end my day saying tomorrow is another day. I try to allow my children to experience life without restraint because...

Having a child with special needs can be very challenging. Many times we speak of ignorance and anger about other peoples reactions. It took me many years to truly understand the definition of ignorance and how to deal with it. I am not perfect but I try to ensure that I take every opportunity I have to properly and kindly...
As I meander through everyday life, I am often bewildered by my surroundings. Many times I feel as if life is totally passing me by. Sometimes I cant even remember how I got where I am.

I wanted to write to say thank you to all those who supported My Hero Charlie during the blabathon. What started as a 24 hr blab ended up being 223 hours. We raised almost 3000 dollars between monetary donations and supplies bought off the wish list. Although we did not meet my goal, we did leave an impression. We spread...

About an hour and a half later, this is how he awoke. When I called his name he did...

So, my night has consisted of, "I don't feel good" and a constant temperature taken. His temp seems to be running really low which concerns me. He usually runs about 97.2 and tonight he seems to be running 95 to 96.4. I have no clue what that means and I think I'll call the doctor to figure it out but I know that on...

Many people ask me how my boy is feeling today and I honestly wish I could say,"He is doing awesome!" But.. The truth remains that he suffers everyday in some way or another.
Today he is just exhausted and battling the same headache for the third day. I want to say things are great and he is healthy. I want to post...
