Feedback on Lovely Blog Award

A little while ago I was honoured to receive the One Lovely Blog Award, and I’ve offered the award to other bloggers whose work I have recently discovered. I wanted to give my readers an update about the folks who I nominated, and also about some of the people they have chosen to award. The chain continues and there are other blogs to discover, many which may be of interest to those who read School’s Out.

Jennifer Laviano is a Connecticut lawyer who devotes her practice to special education law. She writes a wonderfully informative blog, but beyond that she is simply a warm and caring professional who goes out of her way to provide the public with information about the rights of special education students and their families. She has nominated a number of blogs that touch on the subject of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) as well as those on special education in general, on dyslexia and bipolar disorder, and on special education law. Please take a moment to see her list of nominees in the post “I Guess This is ‘One Lovely Blog’!”

One of Jen’s nominees, Matthew Stoloff, is also a lawyer. As one of the areas of his practice is student rights and special education rights, it is not surprising that in his post The Lovely Blog Awards: My 15 Nominees he mentions a number of blogs about special needs, special education and the law. What was interesting was that some of his nominees focus on service dogs for disabled people – including dogs for children with autism, a subject not yet widely discussed. I encourage my readers to check out Matthew’s nominees as well!

Fellow Blogalogues writer Brick, who writes both Encourage Health and Tech Gadget, had a shorter list of nominees, but just as much worth visiting. His nominees include some writing and literature blogs, one on the mystical, and a couple written by parents – but not necessarily always confined to topics involving the kids. Please check out “One Lovely Blog Award” is Greatly Appreciated.

Also accepting the lovely blog award were:

• Karen at Candid Diversions
• Annie at PhD in Parenting
• Jimmie of Jimmie’s Collage
• Ellen of To The Max
• Tammy at Autism Learning Felt

I hope you’ll take some time to visit them all!

Cheers,
