May 20, 2010Welcome!We are doing a major redesign of the site to make it much more interactive, which is, after all, its purpose for being. This should be completed very soon. All registered members of the site will be notified by email when the new version is up and running, at which time we will embark on a major PR effort to get the word out about the site . . . we hope you'll join in on that effort.

October 4, 2009  Another Extraordinary Conference We who frequent this site share two powerful bonds. ~ We are committed to the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, disciples for whom themes of atonement, repentance, love, service, temple and home are not mere inspirational oratory, but the foundational principles of our lives. ~ We have special circumstances in our families that test and try us to our limits. In facing our challenges, we faithfully try to apply gospel principles, even as we draw comfort, perspective and power from them. But, like all parents, we get weary ... and thirsty. We've had a refreshing drink of living water this weekend. Lisa Riska

If you are (or know) a school teacher, or have a church calling with teens (who seem most inclined to throw the R-noun around unthinkingly), you might invite them to view the video and then take the pledge to stop using it.

Where in spite of all you can do,
There is no way out.
There is no way back.
There is no other way but through.
This verse was shared with me shortly after the day a doctor declared that our Matt's mind would never mature. Leaving his office, I drove |

"Adjusting to having a child with a disability is a process, not an event. It takes some time to learn how to deal with the confusion, physical demands, behavioral challenges, extra expenses, and feelings of embarrassment and loneliness. If you have experienced or are still going through this process of adjustment, it is important for you to know that many of your responses and reactions are normal." Marleen S. Williams "Raising a Child with a Disability," Ensign, Feb 2007 |
