Ever find yourself in a whirlwind of activities, responsibilities, and changes that come with a new school year, especially when you're a special needs mom? Brace yourselves as Brooke, Jenny, Kristen, Rachel, and I navigate through the labyrinth of successes and challenges we're experiencing. We share candid insights into what's worked for us, from using visual calendars and grocery delivery services to create a peaceful home environment, to managing our children's fatigue and stress levels.
No one said being a special needs mom was easy, especially when it comes to juggling activities and responsibilities. We've seen how reducing extra activities or joining new communities can create surprising breathing space for our kids. Listen as we tackle the everyday chaos of managing backpacks, tour schedules, and medical care, and share how we've found the systems that work best for each of our families. We also share our trials on creating new habits for our kids, from transitioning in and out of the car to toilet training, and how we've conquered these roadblocks.
Our journey as special needs moms isn't all about our children, it's about us too. In this episode, we delve into overcoming the fear of asking for help, improving communication with our children's teachers, and even taking a break from our children to nurture our marriages. We also explore the concept of marriage meetings and how they can benefit relationships. Join us on this empowering journey, where we support each other to be the best moms we can be. After all, it's through sharing and connecting that we find strength and solutions to our challenges.
