Our Daily Schedule

Have you ever felt overwhelmed? With special needs kids and my brain injury, a routine is a must! We may have a little more detail than you would want, but if I don't have it in writing, my kids say, "I didn't know I had to do that!" My kids often set their alarm clock and get up earlier and race each other to finish their school work so they can go play with friends earlier! So, here is our day! Please let me know what you think or ask questions in the comments!
