It has been a long while since I posted. Update

Hi there, It has been a ton of time since I posted. So much has happened over the last few months, but I am looking forward to getting back to it and finding resources to make my blog a better blog, that has free resources for both teachers and parents.

So why have I been off the grid, so to speak. We went through the whole Covid thing. First my sons father got it, and because our son spent time with him, we were all made to quarantine. We were all vaccinated but he still got it. Ugh! Gotta love Covid.

During the quarantine, I had had to do Google Classroom with Jacob. Jacob does not do well with the online learning, so the fight was on, to get him to do it.

I, myself have not been feeling well. I had a much needed procedure that had to put off until the quarantine is over. I had to reschedule twice. I finally had the procedure and now I am recovering nicely. With other stuff such as taking care of my brother(who is sick with liver disease and now type 2 diabietes), time just got away. But I am now back and have so many awesome ideas.

I am looking into doing a few videos with my first born,Jayden. Jayden is a sign language interpreter. So in my interview we will be discussing the difference between ASL sign and Special Needs Sign. Yes there is a difference. All signs are not alike and Jayden will be sharing the differences and how it can impact a classroom and a child.

I also plan on doing a video with Jayden about acceptance and why being different is OK. This will be a 3 part series. After we finish taping the sign language video we will get started with the acceptance video. I feel this is important to talk about.

I plan on interviewing Jacob's father (which we are not together). But he has challenges himself with bipolar. How he feels with Jacob's diagnoses. What he finds difficult raising an autistic son. Where does he see his son going in the next 5 to 10 years. His opinion on being a special needs father. His advice to all fathers.

I also plan on interviewing Jacob. Jacob is 20 and autistic mod-severe. I will see how it goes. I will ask him basic questions, such as what he likes to do, what is does he want to do after school. What is his dream job. What he wants to do after school, since he is in his last year.

I will also be doing other videos and interviews as we go along. Videos may include easy to make sensory items. Some of favorite inexpensive items for special needs. Stay tuned.

So I will be updating the blog more often now that we are out of quarantine and I am starting to feel better.

I will be starting a facebook page also very soon. Super excited!
