Guest guest Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 LeavesThis was sent to me by my friend - just wanted to pass it along to some other friends! Jill I sat under an oak tree in Montreal on a summer day, drinking iced tea and visiting with my mother. " Don't forget your girlfriends, " Mother advised, clinking the ice cubes in her glass. No matter how much you love your husband, you are still going to need girlfriends. Remember to go places with them now and then; and do things with them, even when you don't necessarily want to. And remember that girlfriends are not only friends,but sisters, daughters, mothers, grandmothers and other relatives too. Women supporting and relating to other women is our responsibility and our gift. " What a funny piece of advice, " I thought. " Hadn't I just gotten married? Hadn't I just joined the couple-world? I was now a married woman, for goodness sake, not some young girl who needed friends! " But I listened to my Mom. I kept in contact with my girlfriends and even found some new ones along the way. As the years tumbled by, one after another, I gradually came to understand that Mom really knew what she was talking about! Here is what I know: Girlfriends bring casseroles and scrub your bathroom when you need help; girlfriends keep your children and your secrets. Girlfriends give advice when you ask, sometimes you take it and sometimes you don't. Girlfriends don't always tell you you're right, but they usually tell the truth. Girlfriends still love you, even when they disagree with your choices. Girlfriends laugh with you and don't need canned jokes to start the laughter. Girlfriends pull you out of jams. Girlfriends don't keep a calendar of who hosted the other's last big party. Girlfriends will celebrate for your son or daughter when they get married or have a baby, in whichever order that happens. Girlfriends are there for you in an instant, and when the hard times come, girlfriends listen when you lose a job or a friend. Girlfriends listen when your children break your heart. Girlfriends listen when your parents' minds and bodies fail. My daughters, sisters, family, and friends bless my life! When we began this adventure, we had no idea of the incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead. Nor did we know how much we would need each other..... Pass this on to your girlfriends/sisters/daughters... I just did! Read the next 2 lines very slowly and let it sink in... If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 I have a fun idea. We are desperately searching for like-minded playmates for our 6 year old, high functioning son. Our son loves to play, but does not have success playing solely with children off the spectrum I would be willing to fund a Pizza Event called "Pizza Peace" to help build playgroups for my son. If you let us know in advance, we will make sure we have free pizza for you and your children. I understand that siblings may attend. We just want to have fun and hopefully make some friends. There is a small park adjacent to the REGENCY LAKES community on 441 just south of Hillsboro. We can be available on SATURDAY MAY 5. at 11AM to 1PM to hold this "PIZZA PEACE" event. Just RSVP before this date...the Plan is to All meet at the playground, then at 11:45 AM I will go to Pizza Hut and buy and carry the Pizzas back to the Park. We can eat them at the picnic table. Who's hungry? Please join us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 I love your idea but my daughter is 16, I'm also looking for the ideal world situation (our dream for our kiddos!) I do suggest if your son has private therapies, the therapist try to have other kids close to his verbal ability have therapy around the same age...then they play games together/ therapy and social skills at the same time w/out them knowing !Sent from my Samsung Epicâ„¢ 4G wrote: In a perfect world we could have some OT's and SLP's there as well to facilitate some pragmatic social skills training while the kids are playing. Any volunteers? Re: Friends I have a fun idea. We are desperately searching for like-minded playmates for our 6 year old, high functioning son. Our son loves to play, but does not have success playing solely with children off the spectrum I would be willing to fund a Pizza Event called "Pizza Peace" to help build playgroups for my son. If you let us know in advance, we will make sure we have free pizza for you and your children. I understand that siblings may attend. We just want to have fun and hopefully make some friends. There is a small park adjacent to the REGENCY LAKES community on 441 just south of Hillsboro. We can be available on SATURDAY MAY 5. at 11AM to 1PM to hold this "PIZZA PEACE" event. Just RSVP before this date...the Plan is to All meet at the playground, then at 11:45 AM I will go to Pizza Hut and buy and carry the Pizzas back to the Park. We can eat them at the picnic table. Who's hungry? Please join us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
