 Raising a child with learning and attention issues is a journey. And it’s one that’s full of ups and downs, successes and challenges, questions and decisions. But what if your child is struggling and you do not even realize it IS a learning or attention issue? In the U.S., 1 in 5 children struggles with brain-based learning and attention issues that affect reading, writing, math, focus and organization. These issues are a lot more common than most people think, and while learning and attention issues may not be as visible as other health issues, they’re just as real. Unfortunately, many kids go undiagnosed because parents to think that their children are just being lazy, need to work harder, or that they are in a phase that they will grow out of. Understood.org Learning and Attention Issues Understood.org has launched the new #BeUnderstood campaign to generate awareness about learning and attention issues and encourage people who are seeing or experiencing signs of learning and attention issues to visit Understood.org, learn about these issues, and take that crucial first step in getting their kids the help they need to thrive in school, at home and in life. Only 68% of students with learning issues graduate with a regular high school diploma. 55% of students with learning and attention issues have had some type of involvement with the criminal justice system within eight years of leaving high school. But contrary to what many people believe, there is no correlation between learning and attention issues and IQ. With the right strategies and support, these children can succeed in the classroom—and outside of it too. Understood.org has the information, strategies and expert insights you need at every stage of your unique journey. Understood.org Learning and Attention Issues
  • Understand what you’re seeing – It’s hard to see your child struggle and not know why. Without understanding the reasons for his behavior, you may even come to some wrong conclusions.
  • Understand what your child experiences – You may know about your child’s specific learning and attention issues. But what do they experience on a daily basis?
  • Understand what you can do – Whether you’re new to this journey or have been on it for a while, you want to help your child make progress and find success.
With the right diagnosis, parents and teachers are better able to understand what their children are going through. This leads to a better understanding of the help that they need in order to be successful. When a child is able to fully understand and overcome whatever struggles they are facing, they will finally feel normal. They will have a higher self-esteem and feel more in line with their peers. This is a BIG deal!

Halloween is only a few short days away! How excited are your little ones?

My kids are absolutely ecstatic, and cannot wait to take on the neighborhood in their super-scary costumes. Sophie is being a "Gothic Rose", and Xander is going as a "Zombie Reaper." They think they look like the scariest creatures around....And me? Well....I think they're both adorable....

You can be the judge, though. Here they are, all decked out in their Halloween Best:

Trick or Treating is still a couple of days away, and the kids cannot stop talking about it. To keep them excited and enjoying the Halloween spirit, we've been doing tons of spooky things at home. From watching scary movies and listening to spine-tingling Creepypastas, to reading scary books, we're definitely ready for whatever Halloween throws our way.

Make Your Gameday Get Togethers Tastier than Ever with Foster Farms Mini Corn Dogs #FosterFarmsGameday #Sponsored

Football season is in full swing, folks! In my home, we have an interesting dilemma....I live in the Cleveland, OH area, but we're Chicago Bears fans. You see, Dan was born and raised in the greater Chicago area, so old loyalties die hard....Even if the Bears don't win a single game, which often seems to be the case, he will still root for them and scream at the TV when they screw up or get sacked...Which again, seems to happen pretty often. 

As you can probably guess, I am not a fan of watching my team lose. (No one likes that, after all!) Something I AM a fan of on gameday? The FOOD, of course! Losing big doesn't sting quite as badly when I can munch on delicious snacks, like those from the folks at Foster Farms. 

This brand offers a ton of great gameday options that are perfect for your family, or even a crowd of sports fans. They have wings of many flavors, several varieties of chicken strips, meatballs, and of course, corn dogs.

​Corn dogs are a huge hit in my household, so of course, they're gameday staples for us. I love serving a platter of Foster Farms Mini Corn Dogs with different dips, some nachos or chili, and maybe even a nice spread of wings. Variety is the spice of life, after all!

With Halloween right around the corner, it's time to decorate those pumpkins! Now if your kids are anything like my kiddos, this can be an incredibly messy process. Last year, for example, we somehow would up with pumpkin seeds and goo all over everything....Including the ceiling! How pumpkin got all the way up there, I could only guess....That's a different post entirely, though. 

Anyway, this year, we're trying something new...Something a lot less messy, too! 

Did you know that Sharpie Extreme Permanent Markers are fade resistant, and can stand up to things like sun and UV rays? That's right! They can also be used on virtually any surface, including wood, plastic, and even glass. Yes, folks, these great markers will also work on the outer flesh of your pumpkins.
