Thinking of changing direction of my blog.....

I have mixed feelings-not sure if I want to add a second blog or just want to expand this one. I've been meaning to add more about the daily life of living with a child with special needs--aspergers and adhd. My 8 yr old son has these issues and the more I talk with people I find out that there are alot of people out there dealing with this too-and other autism issues. It's overwhelming when you learn that your child has these issues and finding good info can be hard. There is so much info out there that finding exactly what you're questioning can be hard. A good support group is a must. I have a small one. I'd like to find a larger forum online maybe but just haven't taken the time to look for one. In our homeschool group,there are a few moms in this situation,and I just found out an old friend from an online group that I've been friends with for about 9yrs now just learned her daughter has asperger's and she is overwhelmed first with dealing with the diagnosis and then finding good information. So I've thought about adding what info I've found helpful here so that others can maybe use the information also. Hopefully,now that we are in the heat of the summer down south (heat indexes have been in the triple digits the past week and there's no relief in sight according to the weather man) maybe I can use some of our summer-time hibernating to add some things to my blog......
