Hey Friends~ 

Have you ever thought my child’s speech is “different” and you wonder if it’s normal or possibly delayed?   How do you develop your child through their issues when you aren’t sure if they are actually issues?  How do you push for what you think your child might need, when you aren’t sure?  

Today’s guest will share her journey of being brave to find out what was going on with her son and what she did in the presence of her school being busy and over-burdened.  Her learned wisdom and guidance will support you in your next choices so you can support your child with love. 

Always cheering you on!
