Chicken Enchilada Casserole

So, as promised this blog is also going to cover food. Because I love food almost as much as I love my kids. I'm kidding!!!!...... kind of. I am going to do my best to share with you what I'm cookin' every now and then. We always strive to eat at home as much as possible, but we could always improve with that task! I tried a Pinterest recipe tonight and it was delicious. I even got brave enough to make HOMEMADE ENCHILADA SAUCE. I am so glad I did!! It was delicious.

Purpose

WHY: Here we go again. Mahala is tapping into blogging once more. Is this even still a thing? Jesus, be near. My first instinct was NO WAY...there is no time for this mess. But then I realized if I spent as much time blogging as I do writing a blog in my head then why not? Ever since Beau was born, we moved states (again), and I transitioned to staying home (again) I just cannot stop thinking about all these things I want to share with all these people that I love...and maybe even some people I don't know (yet). Ya know? So, that's the "why". Next is the "HOW". HOW: I wanted my first post to be sort of like a mission statement if you will. I want you to know the things I plan to write about, share, discuss, and ask. This way you can decide if my blog is something you want to spend your time reading. Everyone has interests and everyone has limited time. Trust me... I understand about choosing to spend your time wisely......

T21 Tidbits :: What is hypotonia?

Have you ever heard the term hypotonia, or low muscle tone? This may be one of the most common characteristics in individuals with Down syndrome. And it took me a while to truly understand exactly what it is and how it affects Beau. Simply put, low muscle tone is a lot like muscles that are very relaxed . And if you have ever had the honor to hold a little one with an extra chromosome you are nodding your head because you know the experience was a little different than holding a neurotypical baby or toddler. They just melt into you like a little rag doll and it will steal your heart right out of your chest. They are more squishy and they are the best at snuggling. It also helps them to be super flexible. Hypotonia does not only affect the Down syndrome community, but it is a common thread (or superpower) that people in the community share. Scientifically speaking, m uscle tone is regulated by signals that travel from the brain to the...

privilege :: it happens

I have debated on whether or not to share this. I finally landed with the decision that (hopefully) the benefit will outweigh (or at least overshadow) the risk. I trust that my words will lead you to know that I speak from a place of love and and solidarity. I pray that when my non-white sisters and brothers read this they do not receive a message that seems to say, "See, it happens to me too." Because it doesn't. This is only my interpretation of a set of events followed by my connection to the world around me. This is me fitting a certain set of events into a reality that people of color face regularly and more often to a higher degree. This is my story of empathy. My family and I live on the outskirts of Baltimore. This particular part of the country..the DMV...is a beautiful place. Sure.. there is beautiful history and monuments and architecture and harbors. But the beauty that I am speaking of is the people. If ever there wa...
