- Share a little something about yourself with other moms.
- Before my son was born, I was a career girl, dedicated to the job. Once he came along, working 60 hours a week was no longer appealing so I stayed at home with him.
We found out almost a year ago now that he's got developmental delays. Most significantly, a speech and language delay. But not an autism diagnosis.
I felt alone. So I started a blog dedicated to moms everywhere, most especially moms like me who are navigating what I call “The Middle World,” the world of raising a child who is not typical, but also does not have an official diagnosis of autism or PPD-NOS. My son Tucker has a speech and language delay and a possible social emotional delay. Well, duh. If he can’t chatter with kids his age, he’s obviously going to be lacking a bit in his social circles.
When we first received Tucker’s diagnosis, I started to research (and by research, I mean Googling on my iPhone while eating) developmental delays, looking particularly for information from parents in similar situations. I wanted to know if fish oil worked, whether they had tried B12, and whether their kids run laps when they start to get sleepy. I found a lot of websites and mommy blogs written about parenting autistic children, Down’s Syndrome children and adopted children, but none that fit me, and our life just right. So here I am. Writing a mommy blog where I’ll share how we find humor and support while raising a three-year old boy with a speech and language delay. I hope to get some new ideas and perspectives from other parents who are also in “The Middle World.” Or any world, really.
- What is your blogging philosophy?
- Blog every day. Make it sentimental or make it funny. It doesn't always happen, but I try.
