Hello long lost crafty peeps. I am still not back to blogging although I have done a bit of creating for assignments. This learning all about Type 1 Diabetes thing and taking care of my girl thing is a full time job right now! Or rather, I am choosing to make it one so I can spend every quality moment with her this summer.
But I did want to let you know (if you are visiting waiting for posts with cards/stamping/crafting) that I am doing a guest blog post for Pretty Pink Posh, Sunny Studio Stamps, and three times for Neat and Tangled in August. I am also working on a blog post for the next MFT product release in August. So I will be blogging quite a bit in August - I just took July off. I also have a new stamp set and new watercolor card set coming out in the next Simon Says Stamp release.
Thanks for hanging in there with me and for all the nice comments you have left. I hope you are all having a much more fun summer than I am - haha. I think we have been to the beach two times where we usually go every day. Managing her blood sugar lows has been challenging to say the least. We only have three more weeks before school starts so I am a nervous mom! Thanks for visiting and have a great weekend! Suzy
Oh my goodness, Suzy, I must have been living under a rock this summer to have missed what you are going through. Our son developed diabetes when he was seven, so I have been in your shoes. The first year is the worst, for sure and then you adapt to all the procedures and changes that have to be made and things get easier. It sure is a learning experience. The main thing is acceptance on the child's part and fortunately our son did this from day one. By the way, he is now 42 years old and is married and has a 12 year old daughter.
Sending you strength and love,
Wendy

Your choice is exactly the right one! Getting things worked out for your daughter is #1! I hope that things go well for her at school this year. Looks like you will be busy enough with your guest blogs - and I will look forward to seeing them. Continued prayers for your daughter and family as you manage this new challenge in your lives! Good to hear from you!

Take care of your daughter first, then yourself, and then when you're ready- we'll be here. Learning about insulin dependent diabetes is a huge thing!! I don't know how old your daughter is or how cooperative that she is being, but just trying to get my teenage daughter to take her antidepressant medication everyday is a full-time job. So I can't even imagine how difficult it must be for you. I think of you both often!!! Best wishes as school will begin soon!!!
