Our Mission

Welcome to our blog! This is a safe zone where we share real life, the good parts, the messy parts, the funny parts, and every thing in between.

Here we will get really real with y'all about life with special needs kids, living with vision impairment, and autoimmune disorders. We want to share with others who might be going through some of the same things we are so we can all band together and survive this crazy thing called life.

I'm Jordan, or Mama Moore. My husband, Daddy Moore, is Cody and our two boys are Samuel and Richard. Sam has ADHD, which is an adventure all by itself. Richard has a speech delay and goes to speech therapy. Cody lost almost all of his vision in 2007 at the age of 24. I have been diabetic since I was 13 years old, was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia at the age of 23, and in 2017 was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis (not the kind you get from drinking too much).

We have had a fair share of hardship but we stick together and trust God. We lean on each other when we are weak and we hold each other up when we are strong. We pray continuously. We want to share the things we have learned. We want to reach other and show others that no matter what they are dealing with, there is someone who understands and wants to link arms with you and give you support.

I hope you find something here that will help you, or someone you love. If we help even one person our mission is accomplished.

All the love,
Mama Moore

We’re all mediocre here

I want you to imagine something with me for a moment. Imagine you’re parked at the gas pumps outside the supermarket. You look over at the car on the other side of your pump. You see a mom, looking rather frazzled, messy bun hair, probably a stain or two on her shirt, getting out to pump gas. In the back seat are two kids. One is strapped into a forward facing booster seat, looking angry and screaming “mama” repeatedly, getting loud with each scream. The other child is older but is wailing in an all out tantrum that would rival most 3 year olds. He is crying as if someone has broken both his ankles Misery style. Then you glance to the front passenger seat to see a man, presumably the father and/or husband. It looks like he is doing nothing at all from where you stand. Now, be honest. What would be your first thought? Would you wonder why the man of the family isn’t the one pumping gas? Would you think both children need a good old fashioned spanking? Would you judge that mom for...

10 Things I wish I'd known about ADHD

My oldest son, Samuel, was diagnosed with ADHD when he was in kindergarten. I had known a few people who had ADHD or ADD when I was younger. I had even met a few parents whose kids were diagnosed. I admit, I was one of those people who would hear "my child has ADHD" and roll my eyes or just skim right past it, as if it were an insignificant, minor detail that had no real impact. I had no real concept of what exactly ADHD or ADD was or what it looked like; I didn't have the first clue about this disorder. Although I didn't know anything about the disorder the minute Sam started preschool at a local head start program just before his 4th birthday (he's a September baby) we knew something wasn't right. Before this he had always stayed with his grandmother while I was at work and we all just thought he was energetic, a typical rambunctious boy. I can't tell you how many times I tried to explain away his behavior or was told "boys will be boys". ...
