A work of "heart"
Pink flower
Purple flower
Kaci wanted to make something special for her 3rd grade teacher and her school nurse for their end of year gift. What could be more special than a hand-drawn, hand- painted canvas!? I just love these two- it will be hard to see her give them away. We have been very blessed to have these 2 ladies in our lives this year. Kaci and I adore them and will miss them very much over the summer and next year.Wednesday, May 18, 2011

DBlog Day 5: Awesome Things!
There isn't much I like about Diabetes.....
So this will be a short entry-
Because of Diabetes we have met many wonderful doctors, nurses and other Type 1 children and adults that we may not have otherwise known.
We have been given (and taken) many opportunities to volunteer with JDRF and give back!
I have learned to "live more in the moment" and "to not sweat the small stuff."
