So today was once again a second- first time for us. So I have sent her off to several field trips in her now 5 years of school but today was different. Like everything else that has happened since December 17th has been different. It is something that had to happen whether it be today or next school year. She is spreading her wings and has amazed me every step of the way!! We met a 6:45 bus was leaving at 7:00 and won't return until 5:00 tonight. They will be 3 hours from home. All the kids were excited, as this was a first for all of them because they were taking a big bus, so all were excited. I liked it because while I knew Kerstyn was jittery mostly because this was a huge first for her being that far away for that long without us, I liked you could not see it she looked "normal" and noone but us knew what she was really anxious about!!
By 8:08 she spiked to 400 8-/ eeks what? she was 120 at breakfast at 6:30 and got her insulin??? Normally nerves and excitement drop her, once again this shows how incredibly unpredictible this crazy disease is. And I was so worried about lows :) Thank goodness I sent her insulin with her and she was so brave, and yet again strong, she drew up her insulin, teacher checked it and she injected it in the bus with all her peers. I am so excited to pick her up today and hear all about her fun day at the Mission. I am thankful everyday but today has really struck me and made me realize I have sooooo much more than ever to be thankful for!!
