HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving. What does this mean to you? Me, it is never forgetting anyone who is in or has touched my life. God to my Family and Friends as well as for those I haven't met yet.
Being Thankful for everything you have because life is too short for drama & petty things, so kiss slowly, laugh insanely, Love truly and forgive quickly.
Many hugs and give what you can and never forget to love yourself :) HUGS!

Kids Creative Cafe'
Social Play and Networking for Kids on the Autism Spectrum or for those that need extra help on building social skills.
Children two years and up will enjoy the fun of peer play through the performing arts. The Creative C...afe' will help children learn social skills starting with one on one sessions moving into small peer groups of 2-4 other children. As they progress we would be adding others to foster social interaction, communication, imagination and mutually enjoyable experiences. We will establish routines and visual support along with peer mentoring as we move forward with the social activities whereby they can carry on conversations, work as a team, share and make friendships.
The objective of the Creative Cafe' is to create a fun and enjoyable place to meet friends, build self esteem and confidence, build social skills while having fun! It's a place where everyone knows your name and you foster friendships.

Dreams of Tears and Sorrow


Dreams of Tears And Sorrow
Abysmal dark emotions mixed with realities bliss.
A dream created stirs the deepest of memories.
Memories of love and hate, and of gain and loss, and
the memories once of happiness that now cause pain.
...A dream to release them all from the the dark abyss
that they were thrown into once long ago To feel that pain once again, showing itself on the surface.
While still dreaming, still feeling the pain, and still remembering.
The chains of ones grief always remembered, unable to be cast aside,
all is shown on the surface as one cries, still lying there dreaming,
remembering the lies.

One of my students I had worked with at " In The Company of Kids" as one of his theater coaches. I have also worked with DC one on one to complete his book. We had to determine whether it would be just a plain book or a series of chapter books and which publisher to look at and to set a date for completion(which he was able to do). He decided to start a series of books. I am so proud of him :)
