Oh, this kid ❤️❤️❤️.

I get the opportunity to know some really cool humans.

Some of the best humans are the intuitive ones. The ones that wait, observe you, pay attention, and then use that knowledge to know if you really do like them.

That's Connor.

He's intuitive, brilliant, a deep thinker, and a kind, thoughtful child.

He recently took a trip to Hawaii with his parents.

On Tuesday, when he walked into our session, he said, "I brought you something from Hawaii!"

His mom shared that - before he even left for the trip - he said he was going to bring me back something since I had never been.

My two favorite things are coffee and chocolate.

There - in his hands - Kona Chocolate Coffee Bar.

We sat together, looked at pictures from his Hawaiian vacation, and enjoyed the chocolate bar together.

Connor, your gesture and thoughtfulness meant the world to me!

You are an amazing child and I'm the luckiest to know you!

Happy 10th Birthday, Leo!

You are THRIVING!

In August, you started a new chapter in your life and it has been incredibly successful! You are proof of what is possible when given the opportunity!

You have an abundance of energy. Your ideas are elaborate with a tremendous amount of details. It is incredible to see your ideas come to life! How does your brain work so quickly?

You love a good collaboration between different characters from Disney movies - easily combining different themes and characters. I'm convinced Disney should hire you as a consultant!

Your smile, your ability to understand humor, and your determination are unlike any person I know.

Your future is bright!

You are absolutely AMAZING!

Happy TENTH Birthday! A decade of Leo and we are all better humans because of YOU!

Every Wednesday, a group of girls meet at BTH for our Empowering Girls group led by Natalie Hanrahan and Megan Martinez.

In last night's group, the topic was "How rules are created to exclude others."

In the discussion, the girls generated a list to ensure others feel accepted and valued as they are.

✔️ Listen to everyone's ideas.

✔️ Any or all colors of clothing are welcome.

✔️ Every voice matters

✔️ If someone feels left out, be open to change.

These are powerful!

What would you add?

Our next round of Empowering Girls starts in October! Email marena@bringingtherapyhome.com or send a direct message to register your daughter. We would love to have them!

This moment was magical!

Sawyer wanted to play "Hide and Seek" and asked Zech to play.

Zech looked around the room, grabbed this red cone, and hid under it!

Seeing this moment of connection was a beautiful reminder on how fortunate we are!

We love being on the floor with children (or at their level - no matter where they are).

This gives us an opportunity to respond naturally, observe their cues, and follow their lead.

When we look at the world from the child’s perspective, we get the opportunity to be a kid again.

Kids are wise, wonderful beings. By being right there with them, we get to experience it first hand.

If there is one thing I love, it is TOYS.

As a child, I would get lost in play. Hours and hours of play. Some of my most cherished memories in childhood are when I got to play.

So, when I purchase toys for BTH, I'm incredibly intentional in what I bring into the space.

I want toys that encourage kids to explore, be who they are, and, most importantly, have FUN.

Purchasing this has been in my top 5 favorite things I've ever purchased!

Initially, I was hesitant because of the price. What if we purchased it and it didn't work for what we needed?

I honestly can't believe I ever had worries about the impact of the Jungle Jumparoo!

As soon as the first child got on it, it was a game changer! It gives kids the input and movement they need. Kids of all ages - from our tiniest to our biggest (adults included).

We laugh, we connect, and we are locked in on JOY.

SIXTEEN

Neel is SIXTEEN!

And he radiates.

Spend just a moment with him and your heart will grow with gratitude. Neel brings an abundance of love, laughter, and peace to every space he enters.

I still remember when he was small, and I’d wonder who he would become. Little did I know that he wouldn’t just grow tall enough to tower over me, but he’d also grow into a young man whose compassion, work ethic, independence, and joy embody the very best of what life can be.

He jumps in to help.

He smiles constantly.

He builds, organizes, and lifts others up.

He’s hilarious and has the best sense of humor.

Others look up to him.

He is truly the happiest person and brings so much light to our lives.

And let’s not forget - he’s got rhythm! From Justin Timberlake to Bruno Mars, Neel loves music, loves to dance, and brings that same joy into everything he does.

Happy 16th Birthday, Neel!
The world is brighter because of you.

I completely messed up today.

And I was met with incredible compassion and understanding.

It’s transition week at BTH - summer schedules have ended, the new fall schedule has begun, and the first day of school for many districts meant most families took today off from therapy. I had just a few sessions scheduled and moved them to other days so I could take the day off.

Except … I forgot today was Hadley’s very first session in her new time slot.

They drove over 30 minutes to BTH.

Where was I? At home. Vacuuming. Still in my pajamas.

When I saw a message from Hadley’s mom, my heart sank. I felt awful. They had driven so far, and I completely forgot.

And this is where Dani reminded me why I love the people around me. She showed nothing but grace, compassion, and kindness.

"You are completely fine! Truly!! I should have checked with you first! You deserve the day off!! We are playing with the Bluey toys and she’s as happy as can be! Some one on one time with Hadley is much needed for this mama ♥️"

Her words immediately made me feel better.

I’m so grateful to be surrounded by people who understand that I’m human. I often don't forget things so ... when I do ... it is hard for me.

A reminder: These first couple weeks of transition are WILD.

We’re all doing the best we can, and yes … we will forget things.

Let’s meet each other with patience and understanding. It truly goes a long way.

Dani, thank YOU for being YOU.
