Special Needs Blogger Weekend Link-Up: You in?


Here we are, another weekend link-up for bloggers with kids who have special needs.

The idea

Share a favorite post of the week.

What to do

Scroll all the way down to the bottom of this post. Where it says "Your name" put the name of your blog followed by the title of your post (or just the name of the post, if there's no room—you get 80 characters).

Like this: Love That Max: I Like To Pretend That Every Day Is Friday

Where it says "Your URL" put the direct link to the post.

Click "Enter." Leave a comment if you want to say more. Go check out some great posts.

Happy linking!

    This week we celebrated 1 year since we downloaded Maya's communication app, and I wrote an anniversary post (at Uncommon Sense).

    Thanks, Ellen!

    i think i did. i just wrote today about my daughter's deafness (and the constant suggestions that we get her cochlear implants, or watch youtube videos where children get cochlear implants....).

    Great way to network! Love it! I can't do this on my blog because wordpress doesn't run java script (or at least that's what Mister Linky says), but it is really great!

    Last week I linked to "Dear You," which was my real letter to a real reader who was in the trenches with a brand new baby with special needs. This week is my second letter to her - "Dear You, About Those Friends..." She was struggling with her friends not knowing how to support her or what to say. My "Dear You..." posts were easy to write because I was writing my life story. This new friend who has shared so much with me has set me on a journey of self discovery. At this point I'm not sure who's helping who, exactly. :-)

    Have a wonderful weekend, Ellen!

    I finally touched a little on employment/disability, springing from a great post coming earlier this week from another blogger (linked in my post).

    And still planning on the (free) e-book (s) that will cover this very important subject.

    Ellen, we follow you from Colombia and Love that Max has been an inspiration for starting my own blog(in spanish). You helped me confirm that Sofi (my 7 years old daugther) and me could help other families in similar situations just by sharing experiences, information, etc. like you do.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH!
