Remote learning is going okay but I’m maintaining perspective

Moving on.... So we had a pretty decent day today. Elliott had to get his Chromebook swapped out, so Lizze and her Mom picked that up and took care of that for us. That was super helpful and I'm grateful. School is going better and the boys are starting to get into something that when you squint, sorta resembles a routine. At best, it's a bastardized routine but progress is progress. I'm not going to apologize for letting my kids be comfortable while they're learning.

A Ginormous Update

Alright folks, I'm playing catchup here and this will be a rather large update. So buckle up, it's a couple pages. First things first, I feel like we had a pretty decent weekend. The boys had a great visit with their mom and aside from a few hiccups with Gavin related behaviors, it seems like a very positive experience. That's awesome.

The boys want to bolster our security, as do I, because of all the recent shootings in our neighborhood. Just the other night, there were three woman shot while they were sitting on their front porch. I heard the shots but didn't…

What to do after being in a car accident with your kids

We don’t want any harm to come to our children. That’s why we take drastic measures in ensuring they’re safe and protected. Whether you’re at home, or you’re enjoying a family day out we always put our children’s safety first. This instinct also applies to traveling in the car. We make sure our children have car seats that are the right size and that are fitted correctly. We try to keep them calm, take regular breaks and don’t take any unnecessary risks. But, when someone else causes a road accident, and you and your precious cargo are sent spinning before you’re violently jolted across the road, most parents feel utterly helpless. Being caught up in a car accident that wasn’t your fault with your children involved is a terrifying experience…
