First Things First – A Dedicated To Special Needs Parents

I am honored to be a part of a new writing series put together by Hartley Steiner, of Hartley’s Life With 3 Boys, for parents of special needs kiddos called “First Things First“.

Hartley says: “The series is dedicated to reminding parents that they need to take care of themselves. A renewal of our commitment to take the time required to nurture not just our children, but ourselves. We have dedicated all of our energy to making sure our children are taken care of, but now is the time to remember to focus on our own physical, mental and emotional health, our spirituality, as well as our relationships with friends and our spouse. This year, I want to encourage all of you to take care yourself. And I hope each month our guest writer will inspire you to do just that.”

The First Writing is from Marla Roth-Fisch. I personally know her, have reviewed her book, Sensitive Sam, and am proud to call her a friend, mentor, an inspiration. Her contribution post follows.
