HOLIDAYS
Is anyone else nervous about the holidays? Planning what to do and where to spend the time is always stressful for families, and there’s some added stress when you consider your child’s special needs. We have decided to spend Christmas at home, my son’s and my home, and family will come visit here. This allows him to be comfortable in his known environment and with his own toys while also making it special. We will make food and I have games planned to make the time more special than normal family visits, but still keep my son comfortable. We’re still trying to figure out what to do for New Year’s, I’ll keep you updated as to what happens. Balancing your child’s needs with wanting to celebrate and do something special is quite a balancing act, but I’m excited to see how things end up!
