So my son made a little mother's day book at school. They must have done some brainstorming in class and he was taking other kids ideas. But it was nice to know Diabetes wasn't on his mind as much as it is on mine. :D
First he wrote: My mom is a doctor, because she gives me chicken soup and lets me watch cartoons when I'm sick.
Umm...no. I don't think I have ever given him chicken soup when he sick. Maybe once like 3 years ago because it's low in carbs and he couldn't keep anything down. But this is not a regular occurence. And I'm thinking, what about all the shots, and finger pricks! And drawing insulin, and counting carbs! :p
Then he writes: My mom is a chauffeur because she brings me to the mall on hot days.
Huh? I hardly ever go to the mall. And I never go with him. Once again, like 2 years ago we had a heat wave in CA of 117. I brought him to the mall then because I wanted to give our A/C a break. What about when I truck him all over the state to go to all of his doctor appointments. We have one practically ever week! :eek:
He's too funny. He said I'm an engineer because I can fix his slinky no matter how much he messes it up. Ok, that ones true. I love fixing those stupid things. I just zone out and unwind. It's like my version of knitting. lol
It was a paper on "My mom wears many hats." I loved it! There was another part where they put a sentence in front of each letter of M-O-T-H-E-R for "H" he put -Has an awesome I-Pod. ROFL He cracks me up.
Just thought I would share.
