Special Needs Blogger Weekend Link-Up: Oktoberfest!


It's another weekend link-up for bloggers with kids who have special needs. Sort of like Oktoberfest, but without the beer.

The idea

Share a favorite post of the week.

What to do

Where it says "Your name" put the name of your blog followed by the title of your post (or just the name of the post, if there's no room—you get 80 characters).

Like this: Love That Max: I Can Eat My Body Weight In Mac 'n Cheese

Where it says "Your URL" put the direct link to the post.

Click "Enter." Leave a comment if you want to say more. Go check out some great posts.

Happy linking!

    TUC (The Unknown Contributor) and I are co-hosting 4 Weekend Blog Hops for Down syndrome Awareness - October being National Down syndrome Awareness Month - would love it if some of you "cousins" from the special needs community swung by - you are also welcome to join with your own Down syndrome-related post!

    And Ellen, thanks for hosting your own delightful hop that I look forward to!

  18. I am still learning about all this blogging. I love this blog and appreciate the opportunity to share. I didn't understand how to list the blog last time and did it wrong. #40. Linda Atwell, should show Out One Ear - You're Retarded! But please know, this is not an offensive story. It is a heartwarming story about how a popular young man came to my special needs daughter rescue. If more kids would stand up for someone being teased and/or bullied, life would be so much better. This young man made a huge difference in my daughter's life. Sorry I'm late in leaving my comment, but I was confused how the process worked.
