This morning my sister emailed me a disturbing article that literally made me sick to my stomach. I want to pose the question: We have almost 500 members in our group, surely one of you can advise us on how we can do our part in helping to put an end to this kind of abuse. Maybe someone is a social worker and deals with these types of situations on a regular basis or maybe one of you knows of or belongs to an organization that wants to spread the word about this type of crime and how we can prev…

As a Christian in business, I am bound to a different set of principles compared to those of a traditional business owner. For example, my mission statement, the vision for my company, and company name and/or company description all has a biblical foundation. Other business owners may be money, power, or…

When my husband and I first began our journey as parents to a special needs child, we shed more tears than I think either of us had in our lives up to that point. We cried together, we cried separate, we cried when we prayed for our daughter, and we cried when she cried. One night when I put our daugh…

Most of you know that I am a special needs mom because of the blog posts that I’ve written on Christian MomLogic. However, I am also the mother of a child that has special needs.
At the age of two, my husband and I took our daughter to a routine doctor’s appointment. We’d recently noticed that a mound…

Aaaahhh! Mothers around the world, I am in desperate need of your help! I can’t get my son to stop sucking his thumb! My husband and I don’t know what else we can do to get him to stop sucking his thumb.
It all started six years ago. My husband and I walked into the hospital excited about the birt…

To all the mothers out there in cyber space (and beyond), if there is one area in our lives that we can all relate to when it comes to our children it’s COMMUNICATION. If you’re the mother of an infant, (especially one that’s a crier) you long for the days when they can simply tell you what’s wrong. If you’re the…

So ladies (and gentlemen too) I decided to stretch this article out one more week because I’ve been extremely inspired by the stories you’ve shared with me regarding your own situations and struggles with faith and being a special needs mom.
In my conclusion I’d like to focus more on some of the thi…

I opened my eyes at the hospital as the nurse informed me that I’d be admitted immediately. Too groggy to inquire, I simply drifted back into a medically induced sleep.
Hours later I woke in terrible pain and short of breathe, so short of breathe I could hardly talk. My husband stood over me deep in pr…

Last Monday I found out that I'd be going into the hospital Tuesday afternoon for minor surgery, port placement. I've been battling for quite some time with an invisible illness. Due to this illness, I visit the hospital weekly for treatment, which is vital in maintaining my health. The po…

My youngest son said some of the cutest things as a toddler. He didn't really talk that much because he spent most of his time sucking his thumb.
One day my son, being his usual mischievous self, found himself headed to my father-in-law's corner. I don't recall the exact crime in which he committed this time because my son committed many offenses at this particular age.

Well, I really think my parents decided to play some kind of sick joke on me, and the reason being is that I have an older sister whose name is Tina and a baby brother whose name is Isaiah. Why th…
