Thanks, Andy!

Thank you, Andy, for creating this new blog for our Jackson area support group. I am looking forward to seeing all of you at Fellowship Bible Church on May 3rd at 4:00 p.m. Remember, we are going to have pot luck at 5:30 so bring a dish if you can stay. So far, I have a couple of desserts promised, as well as chicken nuggets from Chick Fil A. I think there are also a couple of covered dishes of undetermined content. I will probably bring potato salad, as I won't have time to cook. (Don't worry, it will be in an ice chest, so no health hazard will be involved.)

Housekeeping chores for the May 3rd meeting:

• We need to come up with a firm name for our new group. Andy has designated us as "Jackson Area Adoption Group," and you may decide to stay with that. If you vote to change it, I'm sure Andy can effect that change on our blog.
• We need to decide on a set amount for each family to contribute to the childcare fund. I currently have $40 left over from the first meeting. (You guys were really generous!) We will use that to pay the caregivers on May 3rd. If we have more children than last time, we will pass the hat again to make up the difference. (I'll try to remember to bring a hat this time.)

Our topic of discussion for May 3rd is Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), aka Sensory Integration Dysfunction. I will have a short PowerPoint presentation and handouts. If any of you have specific questions, concerns or input, please feel free to contribute. I am not an expert on this topic by any means, but hope to shed some light and share some resources.

I look forward to seeing you on Saturday, May 3rd at 4:00 p.m.
Blessings!
