I know there’s a lot going on

by

I’m feeling bombarded with information.  And, the sad thing, I want more.  It only took a couple of conferences and some great women and I am just frothing at the mouth trying to find a way to get to more conferences.  One of the issues that I would like to see addressed in a conference is education.  I know, you are thinking that maybe I need to go to an educational conference.  Well, the truth is, I don’t like those kind.

What I have in my mind is a session where educators and parents are able to show off some of their skills.  Yes, it would be difficult to pick a panel and who knows if anyone besides me is interested.  But, I do know that one blog in particular has been running a post through twitter that I think is extremely noteworthy. 

The article deals with autism and the writer at Party Planning Professor agreed to die her hair red if she got 400 comments.  Each comment was worth .25 cents that will go to Autism Speaks.  Don’t miss out on a great article as well as a nice way to support the Autism community.

Parenting is hard enough, isn't it? It's a wonderful thing when you can get online and find where another parent has gone through exactly what you're going through and you can see that they made it through to the other side. Here at Parenting Sites 411, I hope to connect you to the websites and blogs out there that show this journey through parenthood and the lessons that we can all learn together. We don't have to be alone, even though sometimes it sure feels that way!
