Hello Everyone, 

How are you doing? It has been a minute between the pandemic, flu shots, COVID-19 misinformation, etc. I am thankful for another year of celebrations, making family memories and our path to normal. 

Our family is taking it easy this Halloween because my children are now 15 and 19 respectively, so movies, pizza and spending time with one another is what is on the agenda. Let's not forget the candy(that's the best part, LOL!) . 

We decided a long time ago that 12+ was the cutoff for our kiddoes because for myself personally, after 12 years old you just want to either hang out with close friends or family. Unfortunately in the past 18 months, it has been really difficult for everyone to even think about Halloween decorations in the midst of deadly viruses and social distancing. Oh I almost forgot, as well as masks that are now mandated everywhere you go(well at least indoors and while shopping, etc. ). **SIGH**

Overall, I hope this little blog post gives you a taste of realness and that it all isn't that bad. Look at the blessings in your daily life and continue to take care of yourself and each other. 

Stay well and Have a fabulous day! 


Happy Halloween and Stay safe out there:-).

Opening School During a Pandemic with 3 Different Covid-19 Strains

"As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases." https://homeschoolspecneedstidbits.com/affiliate-disclosure/ Is it SAFE for your kids to return to school during a pandemic? My hubby and I asked each other that same question a few days ago when we received an email about our school district's reopening plan. There are so many things at stake: economy, opening of businesses, children's mental and emotional wellness,   parent's sanity and so much more that is happening in our world right now.  To top it all off, there is a pandemic that can kill you and your immediate family ***ARGH!!!***. If you are still on the fence about what to decide, in regards to sending your children back to school, the CDC has a great checklist you can check out and make the best decision for your family.  In our case, our son is autistic as some of you may already know and our concerns will obviously not be the same as your concerns when it comes to having your child return t...

Summer Vibes.....It is Like Hades in the PNW!!

  "As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases." https://homeschoolspecneedstidbits.com/affiliate-disclosure/   It is almost August, and it is pretty hot here in the PNW! We have an excessive heat warning and my oldest just informed me that she wants to walk to the corner market for some sushi?! I am not sure where her mind is at sometimes, especially when it's this hot and she wants to go walking around. I don't get it :-O!  Anyway, we are finishing up this month with ongoing worksheets that I created in all of the subjects that my youngest struggles with and so far he is doing well. Since his birthday was on Monday (he turned 16), I said that he didn't have to do any worksheets this week to give him a break. But he still needs to attend online summer school classes (that I can't cancel, LOL!).  How are you keeping your kids busy this summer?  ~ Mom Advocate
