This really takes me back to when my kids were little and every winter they would collect all the static electricity and their hair would stand on end. That was funny enough but when they realized that they could shock each other it became hilarious. 😂❤️ It’s been a minute. Let’s catch up. In this live I talk about some of my current struggles as a single parent to 3 autistic kids. I share a little about my mental health and how I needed to step back a little. There’s nothing quite like seeing a kid this happy and excited over a gift. The amount of pure joy this adorable little girl is experiencing from being gifted a tiny couch is so #heartwarming and uplifting. ❤️🫶
