An Unexpected Journey: October 2011
http://unexpectedjourney-jana.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 19, 2011. Down Syndrome Awareness Month. In honor of Down Syndrome Awareness Month, here's a great article from Parents. Magazine. I've thought often about how I would handle such a situation when it arises and how I will teach our kids to respond. Unfortunately, I'm sure as Luke gets older we will come across these situations more often than we have just yet. I can only hope I would handle this with the grace and dignity of this woman!

Love That Max : When the worries go away
http://www.lovethatmax.com/2015/08/when-worries-go-away.html
A blog about kids with special needs who kick butt. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. When the worries go away. Max is sleeping like he usually does: On his side, one hand resting on a shoulder, the other curled beneath a pillow. There is no greater special needs parent therapy for me than watching him at rest. What about the fact that he. Wants to express himself by talking? Max's chewing is not progressing much—he mainly eats soft foods, crunchy or chewy ones aren't feasible because of chewing/oral-motor ...

http://www.lovethatmax.com/2015/07/she-wants-to-make-sure-baby-is-healthy.html
A blog about kids with special needs who kick butt. Thursday, July 16, 2015. She wants to make sure the baby is healthy. Mommy, did you know when Max was in your belly that something was wrong? Sabrina asked the other morning as we talked about how big the baby was getting (he's cantaloupe or rutabaga size, depending on the source). My heart twinged. Honey, I had a great pregnancy with Max and a great one with you! She doesn't mean physical health. That twinge I felt in my heart when she asked if I knew ...

Love That Max : Americans still don't get why the word "retard" hurts
http://www.lovethatmax.com/2015/08/americans-still-dont-get-why-word.html
A blog about kids with special needs who kick butt. Monday, August 3, 2015. Americans still don't get why the word "retard" hurts. That's become painfully clear, once again, with the recently released Shriver Report Snapshot: Insight into Intellectual Disabilities in the 21st Century. Also gratifying: 89% of Americans agree that calling someone with Down syndrome or autism a "retard" is offensive. They even find it offensive if the word is directed at a stranger who does something foolish. And ye...The w...

http://www.lovethatmax.com/2015/07/special-needs-parents.html
A blog about kids with special needs who kick butt. Wednesday, July 22, 2015. 10 emoticons for special needs parents. I haven't had a good night's sleep in approximately 10 years.

Had to deal with insurance company incompetency, once again. Having one of those grief spurts. Posted by Ellen Seidman.

Love for Colin: Family Vacation in the OBX - Part 2
http://loveforcolin.blogspot.com/2015/07/family-vacation-in-obx-part-2.html
Monday, July 13, 2015. Family Vacation in the OBX - Part 2. One of Colin's most favorite things to do was to jump in, or watch everyone else jump in. We had a lot of fun with slow motion video taping while everyone would take turns jumping. . Cody loved the pool but did not enjoy the baby floaty thing we had for him. He was much happier to be more "free" (someone holding him) so he could be more active. Posted with love by. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 2015 Special Olympics of NJ Polar Bear Plunge.

Monday, September 29, 2014. October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month! Posted with love by. Friday, September 19, 2014. Life with Colin, Kailey, and Cody. We are doing well with communicating about these issues so it's really a matter of problem solving to work through different challenges. To say this wasn't upsetting would be a lie though as it can be hard to go through a list of the things that Colin is having a hard time with. Even when you. When all is said and done, we.

Love for Colin: August 2015
http://loveforcolin.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 24, 2015. A Fish Climbing a Tree. In the meantime, I have been contacting our attorney with the hopes that we can find out what grade Colin will be in, what teacher he may have, and even what school he will be in. I have never been as disappointed as I am now reflecting over the past year and as we prepare for our Due Process hearing which is beginning on Wednesday. You see, the thing with inclusion is that it requires the members of your child's "team" to work together and collaborate,.
