Category Archives: adoption A wise old bear once said… “If ever there is tomorrow when we’re not together, there is something you must always remember: You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is–even if we’re apart, I’ll always be with you.” -Winnie the Pooh On […]  Breathing. That’s what I’m doing today. In and out. And thankful. Since I wrote last–we’ve been on a roller coaster. And I’m just thankful to be on the other side. God is good. And even if it had taken another turn–he is still good. Deep sigh. I believe it. Harder to type with a mommy […] I am so proud of your little girl! She is a hero and a hero should have any American Girl Doll she wants!! Praying for you all… Laura in Tx So scary! I’m thankful he’s feeling better. What an amazing big sister! I’m a Dietitian. Studies show uncooked cornstarch administered at bedtime mimics the body’s nocturnal glucose utilization. (1-1.5 grams/kg) administered at bedtime, and every 6 hours during illness, prevents morning hypoglycemia and ketosis.

Probably would help to let him go to bed & then wake him for a high protein snack with carbohydrates when you go to bed. High protein snacks, fiber from veggies & fruit will help. Liquid sugar like juice will cause his sugar to spike & then plummet so it will be healthier for him to have fresh fruit. Juice will help bring his sugar up quickly during hypoglycemic episodes. Your local children’s hospital can set you up for a session with a pediatric dietitian for help with counting carbs. Praying that he will grow out of it (some kids do after age 5) unless it is an underlying pituitary hormone deficiency. Good news is that hormone therapy works. Praying for healing for you all! Don’t fret…this too shall pass! Today. My 4 year old–wait…newly 5 year old Frank walked around the chair moving his little fingers back and forth. Peaking over my shoulder, he saw a little boy who was Zeke’s age–in an orphanage in China. Momma. Is that Zeke? No baby. It’s not. It’s a little boy in China we can pray for. […] Isn’t childlike faith wonderful to see??!!?? That’s so sweet to our babes six is nothing really! Our little girl is three and her heart is as big as mountains and so is her faith! Matthew 18:4 Mark 10:14-15 We can learn A LOT from our kids!! Hugs and prayers!! In Jesus Love, |
