This year, we headed to Sanger for the big turkey day feast. Penny got to visit with her two cousins, Clayton and Jaxon and she visited with several family members: Great Grandma Va, the Rusca Clan, Grandpa MoMo, Grandma Buller, Great Aunt Linda and Second Cousin Mary and Third cousin, Cana who is 4 months old.
Besides eating a big turkey dinner at the Rusca's, we had fun practicing walking with NoNo, playing ball outside and we visited Santa Claus for the first time (there were tears). Penny
is getting to be such a big girl!
Its very fun to experience life through her eyes.
As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen. If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public. Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me. Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
