Happy Pride Month!! I was telling my son that we would be getting some decorations today and he responded innocently with “But we’re not gay”. I explained that it’s not about us- it’s about signaling to others that they are safe to be themselves, they are loved, they are valued and supported. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Not every child can express their love in words, but they show it in so many other ways. Their mother is their home, and it’s an honor to witness those connections every day. You are the best mother for your child, and your best is more than enough. Happy Mother’s Day.

My time at UConn was absolutely invaluable.. but I won’t lie and say it was pleasant! Overall, it was as rewarding as it was difficult, and I’m forever grateful because now I get to do the best job in the world.

Take my $

When I created this tiny AAC device, I never imagined the impact it would have. But the stories I’ve heard prove just how powerful play can be.

One parent (above) shared that their son, who uses an AAC, was overjoyed to see his stuffed animal now had a “talker” just like him. From that moment on, it became a daily companion on his journey to school.

Another family told me about a little girl who had never shown interest in an AAC before—until she picked up our toy version and, for the first time, started “talking” with it.

These moments are incredible. No pressure, no expectations—just a safe, familiar space where kids can explore communication on their own terms.

Play isn’t just play. It’s connection. It’s empowerment. And sometimes, it’s the first step toward finding your voice.
