Since I’ve been gone…

wedding day

Hello! I have been MIA on the blog, so I felt I need to give you all an update of what I’ve been up to!

Most responsible for my absence is that I got married three weeks ago today! It was a beautiful and sacred day. Everything went as well as I could have hoped it would go, and I felt so much love and care from the people who were there to support us. I have loved pouring over our photos and can’t wait to see the documentary from the videographer. It was truly a special day.

In the meantime, my husband (still feels weird to say that!) has returned to Chile and I’m waiting on my paperwork to join him there. We’ll be living there for at least the next two years. As one can imagine, COVID complicates things, including an immigration process.

For now, I’m reveling in the extra time I have at home. I’ve got plans to go to the pumpkin patch and then trick or treating with my nieces. While I’m sad to be away from my husband, I am realizing it’s best to be present in the moment and accept the gifts that are being given to me.

I write also to update you all on products I have available on my site. I’m fluent in Spanish (although I’m about to get even more so after some immersion growing pains) so providing Spanish resources is something I love to do. You can check out those resources here.

I also love the cute and colorful worksheets I made to teach line adherence and letter sizing. They were very fun to make! I’m sad I’m not working right now, because I would love to use them with kiddos! There are currently drag and drop and cut and paste versions of a letter size worksheet with a safari theme and a fall theme. More to come!

Finally, if you’re interested in having evidence based facts to provide to parents, my first evidence based handout is available on the connection between Sensory Processing and Anxiety, as well as OT’s role in treating anxiety.

I hope you all are well! Either doing virtual therapy, traversing the waters of modified in person therapy, or somewhere in between waiting for the next step in your therapy journeys.

I’ll be back to posting evidence reviews along with my Motor Tips Mondays and Sensory Tip Saturday posts on my Instagram and Facebook pages soon!
