School Without Mom

It finally happened. Zach had his first whole day of school without me there. Up until now, I have been coming to school to have lunch with Zach to make sure he ate his food and got the proper amount of insulin. I know how fortunate I am to be able to do this. He was very nervous as I told him this morning that I would not be coming to school. His older sister is sick today and I knew how hard it would be for me to take her in there with me. Her sniffling, sneezing, and coughing are the reasons she is not there. Needless to say, our school is awesome. I cannot begin to tell you how much they are appreciated. The kindness they have shown us is tremendous. It has been an incredibly hard year. We are just over 5 months since Dday. It is a constant learning curve which I am not sure is ever mastered. I want to shout out to my school for doing such an amazing job with my little man today. He came home and I asked him, "how was school?" His response, "AWESOME!" Those words are hard to come by some days. Thank you!
