How OKN was born
- O'Hana Kids News
- O'Hana Kids' News was started by Josh & Heather Ackman, when they were looking for events & activities for their son, Zephaniah, to participate in. Zephaniah, is in a wheelchair, due to his terminal condition of Menkes Syndrome. O'Hana Kids' News was founded in June 2010, when the Ackmans realized that many families were looking for the same information for their children.

Have a Great Mother's Day Weekend
I hope all of you mom's out there are having a wonderful weekend, I know it just started but if you are like me you hit the ground running again today :). My hope for Mother's Day this year is to go nowhere! No running around here and there, just to be at home with my family. We plan on putting in our garden tomorrow afternoon, to me that is totally relaxing. I love to garden, as it is a stress reliever for me. It gives me a great sense of accomplishment, when I can harvest that which I have been taking care of, and use it to feed my family. I do alot of canning, so my harvests are used throughout the year. There is just nothing better than to be able to pull out a jar of tomato sauce and know I grew them, and then feed it to my family. I don't know about all of you, but I love to garden. Of course, it is in my blood. I grew up farming, and now my husband and I are just starting to break off on our own. :) Well that is my Mother's Day plan, I hope that you have something relaxing planned for your Mother's Day!!! Have a great one!

Whine to Roses Added
Hey everyone!
I added a new event under the After Publication Changes page, for Whine to Roses. Make sure you check it out, it is on the 24th of this month!!
I can't believe that we are already halfway through September, where does the time go. I hope that everyone is doing well, and in good health.
As a Christian, I know that there are many times that I need prayer just to get me through the day. I know that Jesus Christ my Savior is there for me and that I just need to trust that. Having a child with many special needs can really take its toll on us. I know that God has chosen us to bear the burden of having a child with special needs, as there are only "special" people out there who have been given the gift of bearing this "blessing". I look at my son on a daily basis and think, I can't get this done, and I can't get that done for him (ya know like, putting him in the stander 3x for 30 min, I may only get it done once), I feel burdened by that. As though I can't do enough for him. But then I look at him, and know he is happy. I do my best, and that is what I can do. God knows this and He watches out for Zeph, I know it. Every day I pray for the strength to do what Zeph and my other children need me to do. I am not perfect, I can't get everything done and am lucky to get the laundry washed. But God gave me this blessing of a son, and I love him so much.
If you ever just need someone to pray for you, shoot me an email ohanakidsnews@yahoo.com and I will do that. I pray for ya'll in general daily, because this is a "blessing" that only certain special people get the chance to do, however it is tough at many levels and many times. Know today, that you are in my prayers and if you ever need me, I am there!
