Proud Momma!

Hinatid ko si Kyle kahapon sa school at nakausap ko ang kanyang teacher. Nasabi nya sa akin na si kulit pala, nag-umpisa nung isang araw e pinajo-join na nya sa 1st grade for reading session. Ang level daw ni Kyle kasi e first grader na. To quote her teacher..."it's amazing how he absorbs everything. He's like a sponge!"



I know! I know! The compliment is very cheesy and generic but just the same, sarap ng feeling ng lola nyo! Pakiramdam ko matangkad pa ako sa mga kano! I now realized that being a stay-at- home mom has its reward too. Money wise, I am poor but being there for my kids and see them achieved something academically is BIG deal for me. I feel like I am Melinda Gates sans the money.Lol!



So now, I sort of change our bedtime routine. Last night, I got to choose a book that I like for Kyle to read to me! And he even asked to lead the prayer.


Isn't he smart?

Kyle's Bi-Monthly Check-Up

I told his doctor that I am having second thoughts about the pump. Since we used that gadget, seems like his blood glucose reading is out of control...results were extremes. Not to mention the now-you-see, now-you-don't ketones.



Maybe to appeased me ( and also it's time) she took some blood to test his HbA1c. From 8.1% it went down to 7.8%, that means his average glucose reading for the past two to three months is between 150 to 180.I have to admit it made me feel good.



She did some adjustments with regards to his basal rate but nothing drastic, just less than a unit. She advised us to just continue what we're doing and that I am doing a good job. I kinda rolled my eyes when she said that.



Next appointment: March 05,2008
