Is It Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), Or Is It Autism?
FASD does not have to happen if all women, with the support of the father, are avoiding alcohol when pregnant or planning to become pregnant. There is no safe time during pregnancy to drink and there is no safe amount to drink during pregnancy. This has been known by experts in this country since around 1973.

Going From No Visitors To Four Grandchildren Over For The Weekend

Have You Ever Experienced Depression?
Depression! Who cares to hear about depression? I work with it every week in a group I facilitate. One person described the worst depression being when we go numb and feel nothing! We could care less about living or anything going on around us.

I Just Love Spending Time With The Grandchildren As They Are So Darn Cute
Julianna turned two in December. She is our youngest grandchild although there is one on the way. I watched as she approached the puppy. She had something small in her hand. I told my daughter as she was right by her. She went over and took a tooth from her hand. Julianna was attempting to give the tooth back to the puppy as it was a puppy tooth. So cute. Next, she proceeded to check out the older dogs' teeth and to show them to her auntie. I think she may have been wondering if the big dog was losing teeth too, or maybe making sure it wasn't a tooth that belonged to the bigger dog.

The hubby and I will probably talk again sometime in the next few years about continuing to ride motorcycles, and our children started the talk several years ago now and it continues. We have comments from others too, and we read some reviews.
