It feels like forever since I got on the computer to blog! But here I am with a wrap up of what is up.
From wonderful Smee I opened my mailbox and found a beautiful package of music. just what I needed!
Just a few short weeks ago I had a well check with my kids at a new doctors office. My little girl had a slight fever and the doctor was concerned because she had no ear infection and was in all effect feeling well. So I was sent home with a cup for her to pee in and told to bring it back when she had done so. It turned out hat not only did she have and infection but she had a high concentration of sugar in there. So we have been going through testing for diabetes for a while now. I have to test her sugar levels three times a day with a finger stick test. At first it was terrible she would scream and fight me for a while before I was able to get the blood sample to test and now after 1 1/2 weeks she picks which finger to give me and the tests go pretty quickly. However I feel like I am running in circles because I don't have any answers and I am plagued with wondering if what I watch her do every day is "normal" or not. She gets very tired about an hour after lunch and lies down for a while. Not sleeping not watching T.V. she just lies on the couch for a rest. sometimes this can last for two hours. And now I wonder about that. She wakes up two or three times most nights for a drink of water. And now I worry about that. She has severe dry skin. And Now I worry about that. In one week I will go in and Maybe get some answers. Who knows maybe they will send me home again to have more tests but, I am afraid for my little girl. I think that is maybe just part if being a mom. That even if your kids are healthy you worry about them constantly. I guess it will never stop.
But thank heaven for small blessings. When I opened my letter from Smee I got to take a time out and DANCE with my girl we put on the first CD and dances to the music laughing and playing. What a wonderful moment Thank you Smee for giving it to me!

Oh Pea! Oh pee! Oh My! I hope things turn out well, either way you need to know that you have full support from your lovely family. Science and medicine have advanced so much that even if the diabetes is a reality things will be o.k. You're a good mom and a smart cookie, she will be great and you'll get through all of this. Hang in there kid and give a call whenever you need to vent. I love you Pea.
Keep us posted on little bit, everything will be ok. We will say a prayer for you guys. We need to get together again! Give me a call sometime:o)
