PLEASE BE ADVISED: This is extremely graphic. I have never seen anything like this and I just don't know what to say. 2 year old little girl is killed in China. Who cares? Who cares?  We all should. This should disturb and sicken everyone. What the fuck is wrong with these people. I've never seen anything like this and I hope I never do again. This is the most horrible thing I have ever seen in my life and that saying something. I had tears streaming down my face as I watched this. I can't even image what would posses these people to ignore this. China has much to answer for, and I truly hope that someday we as a human race can stand up united in opposition to these…

We arrived to a rather unfriendly receptionist and the sound of screaming children.  I'm doing ok so far but my stomach is trying to work it's way into a giant knot. Gavin's doing well and seems unconcerned about what he's there for. Also,  I'm sitting next to a woman who has a tampon hanging out of her pocket. This is really awkward. - Lost and Tired Posted by Wordpress for Android via Samsungs Epic Touch 4G (provided to me at no charge by Sprint) without the use of proper editing tools and disadvantages of a bastardized version of auto-correct.

Today is turning out to be way more complicated than I had imagined.  We have two very important things going on today.  They also happen to both be at the same time.  Lizze has her phone interview about her disability claim and as I mentioned last night,  Gavin has a very big dental appointment this morning as well. Well,  wouldn't you know it,  Elliott wakes up sick this morning.  Our plans have continued to derail as well. Lizze is now going to stay home with Elliott and Emmett while I take Gavin to his appointment.  She is also going to somehow manage to get her phone interview done as well. I don't know how this is all gonna work out but we don't have much of a choice.  We thought…

Gavin has an emergency appointment in the morning with the special needs dentist. You may recall that Gavin has some pretty major problems with his teeth. It's something called Dentinogenesis Imperfecta (DI). In Gavin's case, his enamel is defective, which causes his teeth to have a brownish color. A few years ago, Gavin had to have his back molars crowned because they had no enamel. The other huge problem is that Gavin has pulled out so many of his teeth before they weren't ready to come out. Now his existing adult teeth have shifted and the new adult teeth that are just now starting to come in, have no room. He actually, literally, has 2 teeth side by side, if that makes sense. It's almost like they are sharing the same…

I swear to God that Emmett is trying to push me over the edge.  I was prepping dinner and once again,  something disappeared.  I pulled 4 pieces of fish out to thaw.  I turn around and I hear the pitter patter of little feet.  I turn around and sure enough,  a piece of fish is missing.  As I walking into the dinning room,  Emmett hears me and giggling,  runs in the opposite direction.  Next thing I see,  is Emmett sitting on top of a pile of laundry. He actually buried the fish in the pile of laundry and was sitting on it to further conceal his little treasure.  I'm not sure why he has been doing this but while it's funny,  he's pulling these things off the stove and that…

Don't let his adorable looks fool you.  He uses those baby blues to win you over but trust me,  Emmett is T-R-O-U-B-L-E.  Don't get me wrong,  I love him to death but he is a handful.  If you look up the word mischievous in the dictionary,  you'll see a picture of my little Emmett John.  He's into absolutely everything anymore. His is completely exhausting to keep tabs on because he's literally, all over the place. With all that said,  it's moments like these that keep me going.  One of my most favorite things in the world is falling asleep on the couch,  snuggling one of the boys.  It's so relaxing and helps me feel more connected. Do you folks have a favorite things like this? - Lost and Tired Posted…

  I'm really excited to be able to review Box4Blox because it's serves such a practical purpose. If your kids are like mine, they love Lego's. Lego's are a very common pass time for many kids on the Autism Spectrum. All three of my boys are on the Autism Spectrum and they all enjoy building with their Lego's. I've actually written about Lego's many times over the past year because they play such a dominate role in my boys lives. We have had the pleasure of using Box4Blox for a few weeks now and I have to say that this is by far, one of the most ingenious things I have ever used. The concept is so incredibly simple but it works very well. Basically you have 4 trays that stack together. This works…
