Ain't Nothing Gonna Break Our Stride
Nobody's Gonna Slow Us Down
Oh No, We've Got to Keep On Moving

This New Year, 2011, I decided is gonna be the best year yet for Tyler and I. I am going to push the limit. Find a way to get Tyler to a two week intensive. Set up Outreaches and Video Consults. Make each day in the playroom with Tyler a 110% day. Be the best student I possibly can for Tyler's Son-Rise program and the Option Process. Read, Read, Read. Study, Study, Study. Learn, Learn, Learn. Stay in the Present. Organize better so I dont become overwhelmed. Schedule certain times during the day to read Son-Rise and Option Blogs, Review and participate on Bears's facebook wall, Fulfill my committment to blog twice a week on the Son-Rise and Option blog sites, Stay connected on facebook with my awesome Friends ~ Extended Family of Son-Rise ~ Parents of special needs who are all walking this journey with us cheering us and supporting us as I happily do with their journeys whatever it may be. To live and breathe my Passion and make it even bigger. Be a Force of Nature and make my dreams come true. To Each Day Choose Happiness, Love, Peace in Every Step ...to name a few

Well, its now two weeks into the new year and it hasnt exactly gone as planned. The first of the year began with one less member of Tyler's Son-Rise Program. Tyler's program is now being run with just two of us. The last two members of Tyler's Son-Rise team said some really horible things about Tyler that werent true. This happens. I know that what they say is all about them and not about Tyler. I see this as an opportunity to regroup my wants for Tyler's program. As a single mom, less members in Tyler's Son-Rise program means less time for me to be able to get done all the things I want and need to do. I am doing the best I can to accomplish what I set out to do in 2011. Thats all I ask of myself. New members are coming soon for Tyler's program. So, my new year hasnt gone as planned - So What! Must be a reason. Do I feel like a failure? Heck No! I dont believe in failure. Im just walking Tall and enjoying the ride no matter which way the path turns. Am I giving up? No Chance! Running Our Race til the End. Am I exhausted? You better believe it!!! However, I am moving forward knowing ...
