Raising Resilient Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders

By Tiffany 12 Comments

Our life with autism... I don't talk about this subject much and that is because it is very uncomfortable for me. It means walking a fine line between sharing my life and sharing too much about my children, who deserve privacy. It also means letting my dirty laundry air, so to speak, and admitting to everyone that our family life isn't pretty. Hopefully I can tread well with this post and not think I need to go back and edit out various parts. ;) This past week has been a roller coaster ride of … [Read more...]

Easter Dinner

By Tiffany 2 Comments

We have had a really fun and enjoyable weekend. I got to spend it with people I love and we had lots of our favorite foods. The pace was slow and I was able to savory every second. Even got to see a movie with my Dad, my hubby, and my youngest son. We saw Wrath of the Titans. We just don't have enough of these weekends! We dug out the bunny decorations and fake grass we have used for years. The Easter Dinner table was set... And we were ready to eat! Shortly after I snapped the picture … [Read more...]

Staying Healthy and Boosting Immunity After Valentine’s Day

By Tiffany 9 Comments

Leading up to Valentine's Day you are likely to read articles about gift ideas, ways to make it magical, or perhaps what candy and chocolate is the most ethical and healthy. You don't typically see articles about what to do if your kids came home from school with a metric ton of candy and sweets and you don't actually have the heart to confiscate it. That would be me. I don't buy any Valentine's candy his time of year. Not a single piece for me or the kids. When we have to send the kids to … [Read more...]

Green Games for Earth Day and Beyond

By Tiffany 2 Comments

Looks like I have some new games to add to my mammoth post on green board games. Educational Insights was kind enough to send me a trio of their educational, green games for my children and I to play with for Earth Week and beyond. All 3 games are printed with vegetable ink on recycled paper. They have wood and paper pieces, no plastic and they are really rather sparse in gadgets and "stuff" overall. They are very much minimalist games. Another plus is that all three have a nature theme going … [Read more...]

Throw Out Fifty Things

By Tiffany 12 Comments

Over the weekend I dived into the book Throw Out Fifty Things - Clear the Clutter and Find Your Life by Gail Blanke. It is not so much about minimalism as it is about taking the beginning steps to decluttering.  The idea is to have the concrete goal of getting rid of fifty things in all the main rooms of your house. Items of the same type count as one... so 5 pairs of shoes is only one item in your overall fifty. I started reading it on Saturday morning and by noon I was knee deep in … [Read more...]
