I am a mom who is always on the brink of losing her mind. I am a psycho mom.

Speaking
I keep forgetting to say, that I am now a trained speaker for http://mofas.org/, so if anybody needs a speaker on FASD, let me know!!! They had a really organized training and I have the fancy PowerPoint I can use and everything.
I passed your name on to the Director of Special Ed, Cathy Lombard, here in Fridley as they do teacher trainings all the time for many things and I'm sure this is something they'd be interested in.
Good to see you're back online! :) We'll have to chat more about the Vitamin D and Magnesium - I could use more energy! :)
That is so great. I would love to be trained to be a trainer. I do a little bit of FASD education at assorted foster care training sessions, but I would like to have some guidelines and props to make it a real educational session. Nothing much like that here in Australia. Guess I should try to do some internet training or suchlike. Maybe Kari could help me. And I'd be interested to know what you've found out about the headaches (which I have too often, although fairly mild) and the relationship with Vit D and Magnesium.Perhaps you could share on a post.
My name is Barb and I am a teenager at heart who is married to Michael, an Accountant. We have 4 adopted children, Akila-12, Imani-11, Hezekiah-10 and Zeke-9. I am a youth worker by profession but currently staying home attempting to manage our household. My hope for this blog is that it will help me to avoid cleaning my house (I actually don't need help with avoiding housework) and give me some serenity (I do need help with this). My oldest child, Akila, has Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and that is what I will focus on in this blog.
Here are a few books that I found helpful on FASD. I also put the link for the lockbox that we have liked the most for locking stuff up. We have one with meds in it, one with knives and scissors. I like that it is electronic and I don't have to use a key. Each of my kids has their own as well.
