So I've done a bit of deconstructing & rebuilding and the new toast bones, while still focusing primarily on the kids, will be more about the stories of our lives. Specifically how our life is impacted and I believe, improved by raising a child with Sensory Processing Disorder.
I'm going to do some backtracking and post as much as I can about how our lives have changed over the last 5 years and the process that we've gone thru to get to where we are now.
And of course I'll be posting about our daily grind and our transformations and progress as we continue on this journey.
We made a recent decision for me to give up my part time job as a postpartum doula and parent educator to spend more time at home and to commit more fully to providing Ashton with a well rounded "sensory diet." I plan to take a holistic approach including things such as morning meditations and nutritional changes such as adding DHA supplements & perhaps eliminating gluten. And of course providing sensory integration activities throughout the day.
For the most part I'm going to be keeping this blog for me. So I can go back and review what we've done and better evaluate what's working and what's not and have a journal of how things have progressed.
But I also hope that perhaps some friends and family and maybe even some other folks out there might enjoy reading up on the kids and checking in with how we're doing.
Moreover so this is a way for me to go public, to make a visible commitment to bettering our lives. Not just by providing Ashton with what he needs to thrive but also by exploring what we need as a family to flourish.
