Good Morning!
My name is Julie and I'm a working mother/wife of 11 years. I have 2 children: AJ who is 9 and Jack who is 3. My husband is a stay-at-home Dad - pretty cool, huh?
My son AJ was diagnosed with ADHD when he was in 1st grade. We have never medicated him because my husband feels so strongly against it. Over the years, he has exceled in school - earning A's in most subjects without having to try. But, he is disorganized...because his mother and father are disorganized. And, if you know anything about ADHD kids, organization is KEY to helping them to feel secure and stay on track.
I need your help. Where do I start? Our house is a mess - not just cluttered, but dirty to boot. We have NEVER been cleaners...we will have "fire drills" when people come to the house - practically killing ourselves to make it look "respectable". My husband and I have made the comittment - we are going to change our lives. We want to be organized, have specific routines, be cleanly.
I would appreciate any advice as to where to start with this. SO OVERWHELMED at the moment.
Thanks and God bless!
Julie
