I’m grateful for time with @philweiser.bsky.social this week where he sat, listened and problem solved with a group of special service providers and special educators from all over Colorado. I look forward to voting for him for our next governor!

Spent the day with @coloradoea.bsky.social lobbying for better funding Pre-K-12 public education! Our special educators and special service providers shared stories of how the lack of resources have impacted our students. We need better funding in CO, and grateful for legislators who fight for that!

Denver Folx- I’ve been deeply invested in the DPS school board race. It makes me sad to hear of smear campaigns and dark money. It’s important to notice who is donating to certain candidates and the hidden agenda that may come from that.

I asked for a few hours off tonight from my husband after a heavy week at work and lots of parenting. My husband took my kids to a movie and I ordered Thai food, finished a book, and took a bath. These are the things that help me be a better mom & OT. #SelfCare What would YOU do with your two hours?
