As we enter this new year of 2013, many of us make promises to do something good for ourselves, such as lose weight, spend more time with loved ones, travel more or to do more volunteer work to help those less fortunate.  Some of these attempts will fall a little short, as we fall back into our old busy schedules, while others of us will find that new and exciting adventures await around the corner. My plan is to do all of the above and more, as I continue to work on my ZEN Lifestyle.

Whatever your choices, I wish you good health and I hope you find a great peace and happiness in your heart throughout the year. May you become closer to your loved ones and friends and may those around you see a stronger, happier, more ZEN-like you.

I also hope to see you this year!  My wish is that my joy of photography, whether taking photographs of you or creating heritage books, will create or strengthen a bond between you and your loved ones for years to come.

Many blessings to you in 2013,

Charity of the Month for January

ADHD Awareness                                        

http://www.add.org/

Having a son with ADHD has brought a lot of awareness to this cause for my family. It took us years before we finally gave in to the label, but honestly we are now traveling down much happier trails. With support and knowledge and sometimes medication, life can get much easier.

Our extremely bright son has a great memory, but has short-term memory problems daily.  His organizational skills are a huge struggle, yet he can remember details with facts in no time.  His tic sounds, coughing and movements are questioned by many and varying in degree day to day.  These are difficult for others to understand at times, but we've been told he will outgrow these in a few years.

Many times it is very difficult for others to understand what a child with ADHD is going through and what the parents and family deal with every day.  The simplest of requests can turn into a number of guiding yet ultimately exhausting requests to get one thing done.  As parents, we learn that our child may need more time to walk away from a task that he is engaged in, or that he may get more frustrated when he doesn't think he's being heard. We've learned and we are still learning how to deal with the emotions of our son.

It's never normal at our house, whatever that is, but as my cousin says, we have a drummer that marches to the beat of his own drum and we embrace that beat every day with much love.
