Introducing Exceptional Family T.V. (Day 137 of 365)

Monday, April 5th, 2010

About a couple of months ago I was randomly searching YouTube on information about Cerebral Palsy. I found home videos from a couple with a son who has been diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. Nate & Renee Charlan are the proud parents of Zack, who is 3. The Charlan’s have teamed up with a T.V production company, a web developer, & Exceptional Family Magazine to provide a weekly online T.V show that will provide various real life stories of families with children with special needs. What a great resource for families!! I invite you to check out the Exceptional Family website and become a member. Just imagine the families it will help! Read More

Always A New Day (Day 103 of 365)

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

It Doesn’t feel like there is never enough time in the day! I know I feel like that for sure! The days seem as if they are moving faster and faster. I don’t know…maybe thats just because I’m in go mode all the time…and there is always something to be done. I can tell I need to slow down for a bit.

I thought today I would give you a brief update of what’s going on in each of the lives at The Little House.
