We love our lives, we love our kids, and despite the wonderful journeys we are on as special needs mothers... we still grieve the “ what should have beens..” it’s normal. It doesn’t take away from the beautiful life you have now, but the grief of raising a child with a disability is legit. It creeps up when you least expect it. Holland is much different than Italy.. Join me and our special guest Brianna Allen, special needs mama x 4 as we talk about life, the grief process, her challenges and then the triumphs that come with raising FOUR children on the spectrum. Don’t miss this, you need it mamas. Life is hard let's lift each MOTHER up. We got you.

Do you ever think about the person you were before your child as diagnosed and think..." Who is that lady?!"  I know I do. So much life has happened in the decade since my daughter was born, it feels like an eternity in some ways, then a blink of an eye the next. Special Needs mamas, I am sure you can relate. However the ways we change can be a positive thing, maybe not the extra pounds and grey hair but who counts those anymore? I have learned countless lessons from my sweet daughter. What have your special needs children taught you? Let's talk about it.
