Kay’s school recently hosted their Pre-K Fall Festival, and it was such a fun time with various games and activities. Kay even got to wear her costume! Initially, she wasn’t too sure about wearing it, even though she picked it out herself this year. Thankfully, once we arrived at school, her mood brightened, but we didn’t stay too long since she wasn’t feeling her best. Diabetes can affect everything in Kay’s life, including her mood, especially when her blood sugar starts to rise and doesn’t come down quickly enough. While I’m not sure exactly how it makes her feel, from what I’ve read in support groups, I know it’s not pleasant.
We stayed long enough to pick out a book that the school kindly gave to the kids, take pictures, decorate a pumpkin, and enjoy a cute photo op! Kay’s school is great at organizing family-friendly activities—not just for the holidays. I’m really grateful that she attends such an inclusive school that provides these fun events for the kids and their families.
I’m hoping to do as many Halloween-themed activities with Kay as possible this month!
