Just a mom living her best “just judge me” life.

And gosh, let me tell you, it makes people mad. I’m going to stand by it though. Focus on your family and doing what works for YOU.

Everyone will have something to say.
Everyone will have a suggestion.
Everyone will have a “solution.” ( Some aren’t even a to a challenge you have.)

What ar your plans for September? Do you have anything fun coming up?

Some days I might want a break from the noise, the mess, the demands…

But not them. It is not the same thing. I’m not tired of my kids. I’m tired of responsibility and overwhelm. I’m tired of regulating.

Anyways— just a stage 5 clinger over here but not judging anyone else on their life ❤️

Yes pickle fest is a thing. There are a lot less pickles than you’d expect. Word to the wise—

When you see the pickle stand continue watching where you are walking. One missed curb has landed me in a cast for 6 weeks.

Nobody warned us that at some point, falling stops being embarrassing and starts being a medical event.

Have you broken a bone before?

| had a whole vision including children who would love working together and the bonding.

Instead I have two perfectly neurodivergent kids, 3 notebooks, loose papers and a Google Doc filled with "ideas" that has been mocking me since February.

And somehow - they're learning. I'm learning. We're okay. It's our version of thriving.

Maybe the goal was never the aesthetic. Maybe the goal was the kids who feel safe enough to show up authentically and live out loud.

What was a fun homeschool activity your family did this week?

I’ve heard I’m failing them…
I’ve heard I’m depriving them of “resources”
but no one talks about what happens when kids are trusted instead of controlled.

Spoiler: they don’t fall behind—
they lean in. 🫶

Also- resources through the system can be limited. A great resource to have but we prioritize those needs at home/ therapies over other expenses.

Thankful for Shangri-la Farm and Sanctuary. A place where my children can go to classes and clubs with friends without masking ❤️

Read this before you scroll past or angry comment.

To those in the system making space for neurodivergent kids instead of shrinking them into a box:
Thank you. You’re changing the system from the inside out. Not everyone is able to homeschool and you’re providing a safe space that is so meaningful to the child AND family.

Now. A gentle reframe.
I saw a post this week about homeschooling not being a “magical fix” for ADHD. It was not intended to be negative. However I noticed the word fix. 🛑

Here’s the thing, from a mom of two AuDHD kiddos:

they don’t need to be fixed. I learn from them DAILY. We need to evaluate if the systems we have in place are still serving everyone. Are children REALLY thriving sitting in classrooms as long as they do? Is the work to home life balance even? We are no longer living in the days where just one parent typically works. Often there is commute time. Then factor in any extracurricular activities. Where is the family connection time? Where is the down time for your child?

Think about how stressed and overwhelmed we are often as an adult. Now factor in being a child without the coping skills and fully developed brain. Just food for thought.

Turns out the internet, FaceTime, and neighborhood/ park kids have this magical way of connecting children 😂

Italian brain rot is definitely something I could go without my homeschoolers knowing but also— I’ll pick my battles.
