ABChristmas
Okay, friends. I’ve wanted to do this for years, and I finally sat down to do it! Introducing: ABChristmas! This is a roundup of the Barlows’ favorite toys – things we used for developing with Jack, as well as things we simply enjoy! When Jack was younger, I so wished someone would have written a list like this! I searched and searched for things that would be fun for him but also help him grow! So, here it is… practical, fun, smart gifts! I’ll tell you what’s not on here… that Melissa and Doug puzzle that teaches kids how to UNLOCK things! Who invented that?!
My dad, our beloved Kurtie, often prays, “God, give me patience, and give it to me NOW!” If you’re a parent in special education, you can relate to this, and you may have whispered, “God, give me resources, and give them to me NOW!”

Steal My Back To School Shopping List
Water Bottles and Flash cards and Granola Bars! Oh My!!! My kids went Back to School this week, which means it’s go time! You know I’m a planner, and if there’s one thing I love, it’s a fresh beginning. This time of year energizes me, forcing me to get organized and allowing the structure to get back on track with things like meal prepping. As I perused Amazon for everything we needed to start the year off right, I thought that I should share our list!
