A Saturday "Site of the Day" special: Most days, a single Site of the Day is plenty to keep you occupied. But on Saturday morning, with kids underfoot and a weekend's worth of amusement needed, something more intensive is called for. So be sure to stop by here every week for your super-sized listing of Five Fun Things to Do Today -- including a family activity, a site for the kids, a shopping site, a site offering humor or inspiration about parenting children with special needs, and a site for grownups that's just silly or fun. Today's list:
- Activity: Sound Bingo
- Kids' Site: Book Adventure
- Shopping: MobilityVille
- Humor: Morph
- Just for Fun: "Every Indie Romance in a Song"

Reflect: Do I appreciate how much being the parent of a child with special needs has changed me? Do I think those changes are good or bad?
Respond: Read my Love Notes for Special Parents and consider how many of them apply to you. These are traits you have gained or developed as the loving and advocating parent of a child with special needs. Give yourself a pat on the back, and your child a hug for the help.
Every weekday, take a moment to read, reflect, and respond to a passage from a book, blog, or article. ... More Reflections
