Diabetes Art Day

One of Bekah's favorite kindergarten activities was journaling. The kids would draw pictures and write about them. They were encouraged to just write the sounds they heard in the words, correct spelling comes later in their writing journey. I bought Bekah a journal to write about D from her perspective. Here are a few entries from her journal:


Translation from the kindergartenese (I love kindergartenese): When I feel low I feel hungry and shaky. When I am low I have to have 15 carbs to get it back up.
