Welcome Parents

I'm a mom with two young children and one with special needs. I get it! I know what kinds of information you're seeking as I look for this too. So I report anything I think that's helpful to you from going on adventures in and around Chicago with my kids, interesting articles about topics I think are helpful from managing homework, to potty training, to understanding what developmental milestones look like and helping you out with ideas in what to do on rainy days to prevent boredom. My two blogs are always a work in progress and I listen to YOU out there for ideas. Thanks for the interest, share with your friends and hopefully I'm helping you find your way navigating through parenthood.
