I am really not for sure why I decided to check out my old youtube channel but I did, and I cried. As far as an awareness post today…..well…..as a mother it heartbreaking to watch your daughter work so hard to gain skills and then again to lose skills. I long to have my sweet […]
Playtex – you are KILLING ME!
Thanks alot Playtex! You discontinued the ONE cup my son can drink independently from! What a nightmare. So of course I go online to try to buy up as many as I can and find posting like this one seen below. YES you are reading that correctly over $200 for two cups – are you kidding […]
Saying Goodbye
I do not know if this counts as an awareness post really but it is a part of our life – with DS/ASD and ABA Therapy….saying goodbye is HARD! I remember when Boston started ABA – I was terrified. I have to drop my little sweetheart off – leave him there – all day – […]
Warning: I was MAD at Rett this morning.
I love that there is a month set aside for Awareness of Rett Syndrome but to be honest every single day I am very VERY aware of Rett and what it has taken away from my daughter. From the time she wakes up until the time she closes those beautiful eyes to go to sleep each […]

#NoMoreEmptyArms
I remember sitting at my dining room table hearing the news that sweet Livvy had passed unexpectedly in her sleep. She was the first little girl that had died since we had received our diagnosis. I never had the chance to meet Livvy and still have not had the opportunity to meet her amazing mamma, […]

I had purple cards for Brooklyn and separate blue cards for Boston. Now I have ONE card of awesome! Brookies info on one side and […]
