Why I Do This

I am the mom of a child who is a seeker. He seeks and craves sensations, especially the crashing ones! Sensory Processing Disorder is a part of our journey and lives. It is a daily struggle and joy. I am blessed to be at home with this wild messy loving super smart child. Sensory processing is a journey I am happy to share. Our experiences may make you laugh or cry. The only certainty is that there will be experiences and they will be plentiful! My son is going to weather many days and drag me along with him! Together we will discover what our journey is meant to be.

Sensational Time in Florida

We recently returned from Florida!  It was an awesome family vacation!  For our sensory kid it is heaven!  The sand & surf are calming.  Imagine the quiet stretches of sand and the sound of the waves.  The weight of the water and the sand.  Allowing your small body to be crashed and smashed to the ground over & over by the waves.  Being buried under mounds of warm wet sand.  Digging and searching for treasure!  The smell of salt and fish.  The warmth of the sun and the mist in the wind.  Tasting the fish that is freshly cooked.  He was sensory happy for 7 days.  The beach is a beautiful place that clears the head and heals the soul!  For our son, the beach is the most relaxing place.  He was able to sleep soundly and play for long stretches of time.  He was comfortable in his skin.  There was no crashing and smashing into people.  He had the beach to do that to him! 

And we can feel like we can make it another few months in Nebraska because we have the beach calling us back.... Soon soon... for it is a healing place for a sensory kid like Espen!

Enjoy a glimpse of our fun time!!
