Hello, Spring and Summer 2024!

We have been so busy this month that I have been unable to post on my blog, which is rare. But our youngest will graduate high school soon and earn his high school diploma. We are so thankful that he has blossomed into this young man and that the world is ahead of him. This is not the end of his journey. We are lining up many resources for him before he embarks on a job, community engagement, and college. 

There are still those in-between nuances that have to be addressed, like social skills, job coaching, shopping, laundry, mental health counseling, and so much more. 

 For those of you just checking my blog out for the first time, I post here monthly about what has been going on with us and our family and the challenges we may face when raising a special needs child/teen/and soon-to-be young adult. It has been a world, but we strive to be on top of it and advocate. 

What Did You Miss: 


International Workers Day
Mother's Day 2024


Cinco De Mayo



Graduation 2024

I hope you have a fabulous rest of your week and enjoy the sunshine. It is almost summer, so make sure you get outside and get some Vitamin D and fresh air. Until next time, take care of yourself, your family, and your sanity. You deserve it!

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
