So... today was a big day for me. The new school Nicholas is going to does not have a nurse on site to help manage his diabetes so I have been staying at school everyday. I have been teaching his teacher how to check his blood and the signs to watch out for, she has been doing GREAT! They are not allowed to give him his insulin but are allowed to test his blood sugar. SO today I left him in class for one hour without me. He did great and was happy as can be they told me, but me on the other hand cried like a baby all the way to the car and never actually left the school...lol! Tomorrow I think I am going to go home for an hour. I must sound so silly, but those of you who are mom's know what I am going through. How did my baby grow up so fast???

Hi! I have always wanted to start a blog, so I figured now is as good of time as ever. I am staying at home right now with my three year old son, Nicholas. He is the joy of my life!!! He was born with down syndrome and at 18 months was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. He has always kept me very busy. He turned three in June so now he has to go through the school district for all of his therapies. WOW...what a change...and not for the best! We are trying to make the best of the situation and hoping for the best. He is the happiest little boy I have ever met and so so so lovable! (I might just be a little biased...lol)
