Rock Star

Last night was loooooong.

I asked Lydia this morning if she knew that I changed her pod during the night and she said, " I put Lammie over my face, so I didn't hear the funny noise". I thought she was snoozing. Even when I gave her a shot. She doesn't miss a beat.

I also said that diabetes stinks and she said, "Mama, it is okay to have diabetes". Shame on me.

I have said it so many times, but the girl is a trooper. The days that I wake up in a fog (which is most) and feel so tired, she is tired too. She doesn't sleep well when her blood sugar is 400 or 70. I cannot even imagine what it must feel like when her numbers are not good. I like to get caught up in poor pitiful me that stays up to midnight most nights and gets up again at 2am. It is not about me though. Yes, I'm her pancreas, day and night, but I'm only tired. She is tired with so much more. Y'all, I'm not just saying it because she is mine, but she is something and it is something impressive! This mama needs to take notes from her three year old.

Lydia, You are a rock star!
