Holiday Season got you Stressed?


Holiday Season got you Stressed?

The holiday season can bring with it a lot of stress for anyone, but when you have a child with a disability it can be rewarding and challenging at times.  Remember you are human and cannot do everything, although we like to think we can.  Take time to celebrate and enjoy the simple things, you deserve that! 

Through the holiday’s regular routines are thrown out the window replaced by the hustle and bustle of things to do. For many children with disabilities our daily routine provides much needed structure.  When you stick to some of the normal routine it helps prepare the children for activities of the season.  We also know in our lives things can change in a moment’s notice and we have become masters at changing gears.

We never seem to have enough hours in the day to complete all we have to do and typically put ourselves last on the list to take care of.  It is important for you to take time for yourself even if it is a few minutes, you deserve it!  The old saying “if you do not take care of yourself you cannot take care of anyone else” is true but hard to live by.  Know that you are appreciated!  We hope you have a wonderful, safe and fun holiday season!
