How To Know If Your Child Has a Disability

04/29/2015 by Heidi

One question that I frequently receive is "How did you know that there was something 'wrong' with Bubs?" One friend specifically wanted to know if we discovered the issues after having other children and if it was something that others saw. Good questions! Bubs developed on or ahead of schedule as a baby. There wasn't anything that concerned us at ...

Another Diagnosis Added to Our Plate: The Beginning

11/06/2012 by Heidi

I woke up this morning with so much on my mind.  Once again, I was mentally writing blog posts.  I have found that blogging helps me process through my thoughts and I can only pray that God will use our story and my processing time to bless you.  If you are in your own circle of disorders, I pray that you will find ...

It Rears Its Ugly Head Yet Again

08/02/2012 by Heidi

Here it is 6:15 Thursday morning and I don't have a blog post written for today.  I typically have them written days if not weeks in advance. Today...nothing. But, I think God did this on purpose because He wanted me to share what is on my heart.  To give you another glimpse into our family.  And for some of you, to give us one ...
