WELCOME!

Bridging our community of families with unique children is the ultimate challenge. We share a common lifestyle, perspective, understanding of the world. We share a vision and we are stronger for it. We may never prove how, or why, each of our children has been handed this life to lead....but it is now OUR world. Collectively, we have a choice to acknowledge it, survive it, celebrate it. Laugh or cry, it's OUR life to live...so build bridges to end isolation and join in the laughter. Welcome to Bridging Visions!

LESSONS LEARNED

1. Although the holes in a garlic press look SIMILAR to a grater, squishing a cheese stick in and forcing it shut, will NOT create grated cheese. (culprit remains at large)

2. Eating bread straight from the bag, will keep "toast" from burning your mouth. (my 11 year old's theory)

3. Even six hair brushes found strewn throughout the car, does not one brushed head make.(discovered after A.M. carpool)

4. "Yes, I'm using a dictionary for my homework," can mean as a paperweight to unwrinkle the page. (my 15 yr. old)

5. "Finishing up all the laundry in the house"........is an urban myth!!

6. There is no correlation between passage of time and amount of dirty laundry in your child's room. (Even more true if they have just "cleaned their room").

7. Your child's "goodnight", may be followed by, "I think I might have a big project (test, snack, you get the picture) due tomorrow." Correct parental answer: Go to sleep.

Remember, they are not doing it TO you............
Breathe, Smile, Love
