I Cheated

For those of you out there who might follow this blog on a regular basis, you have probably noticed that we took a one week hiatus without any new posts last week.  My sincerest apologies to anyone who enjoys seeing our bi-weekly updates.  In the past twelve months, it’s the first time we’ve “goofed” quite like this… it was totally my fault and my mistake to not schedule any blogs to post.  In actuality, I have been on maternity leave for the past seven weeks and wrote all of the blogs you’ve been following prior to my taking time away from the office.  And, I thought I had enough posts in the que to cover last week…apparently not.  So, my bad!

However, that doesn’t mean while I’ve been away that I haven’t been doing my own research for this blog to help us continue our journey in advocating for the special people in our lives with intellectual and developmental disabilities.  In fact, I’m coming back to the job with a new fervor and excitement that I haven’t experienced in some time.  I’ve been reading some books that have taken me back to some of my own personal experiences and given me insight into some new concepts that must be shared.  I hope you’ll see a new energy in the posts over the next few weeks and months.

So while I’m admitting I cheated in posting less than fresh thoughts, I hope you’ll take it as a pardonable sin and move ahead with us as we continue to be advocates for the ones we love.
