Memorial Day in Orange County is more than just barbecues and parades. It's a time to honor our heroes and come together as a community. 🇺🇸 I remember last year, helping a retired couple downsize to a home that perfectly fit their new lifestyle. During our conversation, they shared their excitement about the local Memorial Day celebrations. It reminded me how deeply we are all connected by our history and our shared values. For many of us, especially baby boomers and retirees, moving can feel like a daunting task. But it's also an opportunity to create new traditions and embrace the vibrant culture of Orange County. Here are a few ways you can make the most of Memorial Day while transitioning to a new home: ✅ Attend local parades and events: Join the community in honoring our veterans. It's a great way to meet neighbors and feel a sense of belonging. ✅ Organize a barbecue: Invite your new neighbors over. Nothing breaks the ice like sharing stories over good food. ✅ Visit local landmarks: Explore Orange County's historical sites. It’s a perfect way to appreciate our rich heritage. ✅ Give Back: Participate in community service events. It’s a fulfilling way to honor the spirit of Memorial Day. As you celebrate, remember that every home we help find is a step towards building strong, connected communities. How are you celebrating Memorial Day in your community this year? Share your plans below and let’s honor this special day together. #MemorialDay #Community #RealEstate #BabyBoomers #OrangeCounty

Happy Father’s Day! As we celebrate Father’s Day today, it’s a perfect time to reflect on the important role fathers play in our lives and society. 🌟👨👧👦 A Brief History of Father’s Day: Father’s Day, celebrated on the third Sunday of June in many countries, has a rich history. The first known Father’s Day celebration took place on June 19, 1910, in Spokane, Washington, initiated by Sonora Smart Dodd. Inspired by Mother’s Day, Dodd wanted to honor her father, a Civil War veteran and single parent who raised six children. After much effort, the idea gained popularity, and in 1972, President Richard Nixon signed Father’s Day into law as a permanent national holiday in the United States. The Role of Fathers in Shaping Society: Fathers play a critical role in shaping society. They provide not only financial support but also emotional stability, guidance, and moral direction. A father’s influence extends beyond the home, impacting community values and future generations. Fathers who are present and engaged help foster a sense of security and confidence in their children, encouraging them to become responsible and compassionate adults. The contributions of fathers are vast and varied. They teach resilience, instill discipline, and model integrity. Fathers often provide a unique perspective, helping to balance the nurturing influence of mothers with their own brand of support and encouragement. As we honor fathers today, let’s remember the vital role they play in our lives and communities. Their strength, love, and commitment are pillars upon which strong, healthy societies are built. Wishing all the wonderful fathers out there a very happy and fulfilling Father’s Day! 🎉💙 #FathersDay #History #Family #Community #Leadership #Inspiration

Did you know that September 29th is National Day of Belongingness? Creating a sense of belonging in preschool classrooms is so important! We did an entire webinar on this topic with JaneAnn Benson that folks might find interesting. https://lnkd.in/eJfVEagQ
For more than 40 years, fostering a sense of belongingness has been at the core of Primrose Schools. From classrooms to our Support Center, we focus on creating and maintaining an environment where everyone feels welcomed and included and where our similarities and differences are celebrated with kindness and respect. In Primrose schools, teachers use books, music, engaging art projects and more to help children see themselves reflected in the world around them and share about the traditions and activities that are important to their families. And every year on September 29, we celebrate our National Day of Belongingness when we invite families from Primrose and beyond to join us in exploring the idea of belongingness and looking for ways to nurture this feeling at home and in their community. Read more about how a sense of belonging is fostered at Primrose. https://bit.ly/3Tm5lTO

Reunification month gets lost in the other celebratory months because it’s viewed as the expectation. It’s not considered an act of “going above and beyond.” Reunification month is the most important month. Parents facing themselves, having uncomfortable conversations and experiences, accepting responsibility for their actions, and overcoming adversity. Their children working through circumstances outside of their control, building stronger bonds with their families to understand grace, love and compassion. This doesn’t get recognition because what’s the picture to be posted on social media? What do you say about these folks who did this work? Our system doesn’t recognize them as “heroes” because it’s what we are supposed to do. WV subsides adoptions from foster care a great deal. Minimum $700 per month until the child turns 18 plus a Medicaid card. When a child is reunified, they don’t get any support. The case is closed. They get Medicaid if the qualify for Medicaid. Milestones should be celebrated not shamed. I’m glad to see more recognition for reunification.
June is Reunification Month! We are grateful for all of the volunteers that help create positive connections that help children reunify with their families. We recognize that not all families are the same and we strive to help them grow together.
