Mark this in your calendars. I sewed something this weekend. Granted it was just the end of two socks, usually the sewing of a button sends me into fits of gnashing my teeth and stomping my feet. I just do not like to sew. This time, I had an idea. I’ve heard how easy it… read more »
Or lack there of. Aaron was off his meds, and therefore waking at all hours of the night. It’s like we are in some bad prison movie and the warden wakes us every 20 minutes to an hour for interrogation and screaming torture for the last week and a half. The screaming has subsided slightly… read more »
Neither of my boys have been keen on riding a bike. It’s been a source of contention with the pediatrician and I over the last couple years. I honestly think that quite frankly we have bigger fish to fry with the whole autism thing going. Sure, I’d love for my boys to ride bikes like… read more »

There were MANY judgemental comments on that posting by people. Here’s my take: if it’s not a safety issue, who cares? I… read more »
Now before you dismiss this as your average paid review, don’t. It’s not. Why am I endorsing this restaurant then? We have a son who LOVES loud music. He likes the TV loud, music loud, and his games loud. Texas Roadhouse has fairly loud music. Not so loud you can’t converse, but loud enough that… read more »
I can’t tell you how many mornings there have been tantrums complete with screaming, crying, and throwing things because socks didn’t “feel right.” Sensory issues abound in our house. It was so bad at one point that our oldest child was getting dressed in his school clothes for the next day before going to sleep… read more »
