Can you believe it? The school year is
almost through, summer is officially on its way, and the year is flying
by. This time of year is certainly a time to look around and try to
catch our collective breath. So, in an effort to do just that, I would
like to take my time to think, for a moment, about those who make a
difference: the “everyday hero’s” who make a difference in
the world. It often times goes unspoken so this is a
wonderful opportunity to write it instead.
To our Mothers, it is after all going to be
Mother’s Day in May, there is a tribute to our “Special”
Mothers that acknowledges who you are and the strength you do
possess. In June, it is our Fathers turn to be in the spotlight. We honor
our Fathers as well. You make a difference with your
presence and with your influence.
As
the school year end approaches, many of you are wondering what to
do…..go on a vacation or short getaway perhaps. If so, there are some
wonderful tips on traveling with a special needs baby or
small child.
For those of you who are choosing to stay home, there is
an very informative article on TOPSoccer and the
impact, difference, and encouragement that they are providing. Also,
since we are going to be entering the Hurricane Season during June,
there are some very helpful, and healthy food choices during
a Hurricane……we always want to be prepared even if no
hurricane approaches.
Also, since this year IS flying by, it gave
me an opportunity to realize that before you know it, the kids will be
grown. So, then what? How many of us might take a look at our spouse
and say “who are you?” or “how do we repair us?” We are excited about a
new column called “Relationship Rescue” and it will
allow you, our community, to ask questions about difficult situations
that arise during a marriage and receive professional
answers and advise. After all, the greatest everyday hero is……each of
US!!
