Dylan came home for the weekend because we had a party today for World Diabetes Day. Much to our surprise he had some of his friends come over to his house and, along with some of Billy's friends, they did this.

We went to church this morning and after the service all the kids in his sunday school class, youth pastor, pastor, and a lot of the congregation wrote him little notes on green paper (his favorite color) on how proud they are of him.

Yep! He can eat whatever he wants as long as he takes enough insulin for it. Unfortunately cake is one of his "problem foods". Problem food meaning, he can eat the cake today and his blood sugar will be perfectly fine, but tomorrow will be completely out of control...but we always make sure he's a kid first, diabetic second. So thankfully his blood sugar cooperated today!

He's such a gorgeous boy!!! The cake looked so nice, I want a piece lol. That's just too sweet what his friends and church buddies did for him. I'm SO happy that he has so many people that care about him like that. Good day for Billy!

I know! It was even more surprising that all of Dylan's friends from college (most of which have only met Billy once) were that supportive as well. Got a little choked up...don't tell anyone!

He wore it on his arm so everyone could see it. I'm really happy that he isn't ashamed to have diabetes anymore
