If it’s been a while since you paused…
If you feel like the checklists and appointments have started to blur…
If you’re wondering when you last just enjoyed your Child’s Childhood
This might be the moment to come back
Not because you’ve done anything wrong
But because childhood moves quickly, and sometimes, even with the best intentions, we forget to stop and catch it.
Written for parents who want to reconnect with the sacred moments hiding in plain sight.
You won’t find milestones or therapy plans here
You’ll find something more profound, a way to re-enter your child’s world with gentleness, trust, and presence.
Written by CJ, a special educator, founder of PicSeePal, and global AAC collaborator with UNICEF and the NIKA Project, this book draws on 25 years of experience with children of determination and their families.
Quiet reminders of how much communication is already happening
Ideas for strengthening connection through rhythm, co-regulation, and play
Real stories, a lightness, and warm language that lets you exhale
A deep respect for your wisdom, your pace, and your relationship with your Child
A breath. A pause. A way home, if you feel ready.
