Thank you all for the warm welcome. ...RevGalPals, <br /><br />Thank you all for the warm welcome. I'm looking forward to getting to know you.<br /><br />It's nice to know that some of you know the challenges/rewards of parenting someone with special needs.<br /><br />KJK,<br /><br />Sure, you can borrow her, with the following stipulations:<br /><br />1. Understand that she has to be at exactly the right degree of mania. Too little, and she's too overwhelmed to do anything, too much, and she can't focus long enough. (I have no idea how to get her to that degree of mania.)<br /><br />2. It's helpful to have a powerful motivator-- like missing concert tickets-- buried on the desk.<br /><br />3. You keep her for two days-- she'll love spending time with her aunt and uncle! And no, I don't guarantee I'll answer the phone if you call...<br /><br />As a bonus, I'll even provide transportation-- both ways! <br /><br />RMReverend Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01726370034631635093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8598593770349608789.post-23941646231148543372009-05-18T12:03:00.000-04:002009-05-18T12:03:00.000-04:00Can I borrow her to clean my office?

Today I'm signed in as river song, but as an RGBP I blog at desert spirit's fire and this far by faith; I sometimes host the monthly musical musings, too. As MomPriest suggested, playing and visiting Friday 5 is a great way to get to know others in the community. What an awesome responsbility and privilege you have as a parent to your daughter!river songhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01544925349152380920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8598593770349608789.post-46079283148038740872009-05-18T11:44:00.000-04:002009-05-18T11:44:00.000-04:00Good morning!

So welcome to our community. <br /><br />Over at revgals this morning you will find some interview questions - a way for you to get to know us (well, humorous way) and for us to know you.<br /><br />Also, a good way to join the group it to play the Friday Five, join in on the Saturday preacher party, and read and leave comments on other blogs.Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15667178624061122421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8598593770349608789.post-19912606666736974092009-05-18T11:10:00.000-04:002009-05-18T11:10:00.000-04:00welcome to revgals and thank you for sharing your ...welcome to revgals and thank you for sharing your blog, your thoughts, your life.

She is nonverbal and has some autism-spectrum behaviors, but can be a sweet, funny person and an incredible poet when the support and assistive technology is there...<br /><br />I was her primary caregiver for three years before I left for seminary. The decision to leave was a very difficult one. In my short perusal of your blog I find so much that is so achingly familiar!<br /><br />May you continue to be blessed with laughter in the midst of all the outrageousness. And may you feel warmly embraced by all of us RevGals!MaineCelthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06318937035647123010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8598593770349608789.post-10764018453132928632009-05-18T09:32:00.000-04:002009-05-18T09:32:00.000-04:00Welcome to the RevGalBlog Pals.
