Gratitude in parenting is rarely about big gestures.

It’s the tiny moments:

✨a shared laugh
✨a quiet morning together
✨a “thanks for trying again”

Kids learn from what we notice- not what we lecture.

🤍 What little moment warmed you today?

I asked for a poppy to be drawn for Veterans Day — and within two hours, this beautiful piece was created to show care and talent. Both of her grandfathers are veterans, and this is dedicated to them and all who have served our country in defense of liberty.

It also carries my wish that her freedom will be protected throughout her lifetime and beyond, just as her grandfathers once fought for.

Reflecting on the profound words of Benjamin Franklin — “Where liberty dwells, there is my country” — we are reminded of the essence of freedom.

Liberty, as defined by the Oxford Dictionary, is the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one’s way of life, behavior, or political views. This truth reminds us that our loyalty belongs not only to a nation’s borders, but to every place where fundamental rights and freedoms are honored.

Let’s cherish and protect these values that shape both our communities and our lives.

October is ADHD Awareness Month, and it’s time to shine a light on how ADHD can look different in girls 🌟

ADHD in girls is often overlooked or misdiagnosed because it doesn’t always fit the typical mold. Girls with ADHD typically struggle with inattentive symptoms such as difficulty with focus, organization, and time management ⏰📚

Many girls with ADHD are experts at masking, which combined with less obvious symptoms, can make their challenges go unnoticed. But recognizing these signs is SO important. When understood and supported, ADHD can become a superpower- a source of creativity, resilience, and hyper-focus. 💡✨

Let’s raise awareness, advocate for proper understanding, and celebrate neurodiversity in all its forms. Girls with ADHD are strong, capable, and more than capable of thriving! 💪🤍

🎃 Halloween is almost here! 👻
Before you pass out candy, remember: not every child experiences Halloween the same way.
✨ Some costumes itch, lights and sounds can overwhelm, words may be hard to find, and motor skills can make simple tasks tricky.

This season, let’s lead with patience, empathy, and understanding. 💛
You never know the story behind a child’s behavior — but kindness always fits.
