Important Thoughts About College For my Children Featuring Adelphi University @adelphiU

We are a blended family; we have my three children plus his teen child all living under one roof. The fact that we have two adults and four very unique, individual children in the home means that the topic of college does come up from time to time. As the girls get older, I know that college may be something they wish to pursue upon their graduation dates in 4-5 years. What Matters To Me About College As a Mom who thrives to provide my children with the best education possible, working both with the school system and at home, I think having a college with commuter options as well as dorm options would be best. My eight year old son has high functioning autism and when I think about …

Wallis Sands State Beach in Rye, NH #stateparks @wallissandsNH

We usually go to York Beach, Maine every single Summer, but this past Summer that wasn’t proving to be an option.

There are 8 myths about Life Insurance and I honestly believed most of them before attending this briefing; Buying Life Insurance is a hassle You only need it if you have kids …

School Starts Social Skills Class for Students #autism

I am all about getting a full education, I believe school is the place for children to learn, thrive to be individuals and be encouraged to think outside of the box. Last year I heard about a social skills course that was going to be offered for some children who may benefit from such a class, of course my Aj was considered as one to take this course. It’s a great idea based on social thinking and it’s basically a means to teach children, sometimes specifically autistic children, how to be social in our every growin social society. I was in love with this idea, after all Aj’s counselor had mentioned this is really our next area to address. Hearing the school offered such a course, one day a week …
