Last night went great for Ben.
Today - it finally hit me. I cried in the shower. I cried walking through the grocery store. So, if you were at HyVee today and saw a pregnant lady sobbing through the aisles - especially in the dairy aisle - that was me!
It just hit me. All the things he can have. All the fun things that he can have! And he feels more like he can be part of the things that all of us do. I can even take my kids out for ice cream!!!!!
The best part was coming home from the grocery store and showing him my finds for him: Momma's frozen yogurt, butter (REAL butter), 4 different types of cheese, yogurt, a box of mac and cheese (although tonight's dinner is going to be the homemade version), creamy tomato soup, croutons!!! (this is a big one for him!) and ... M&Ms. I wish you could have seen his face when he saw that he could have those. Priceless.
God heard my frustrated pleas that I was tired of avoiding milk.

This is so very wonderful to hear. I am sure it has been a tough road over the last 4+ yrs with his food allergies. I do hope things continue to go up and it's so fantastic that he is excited to be able to eat these new treats. :)
You brought my tears back again. I can just see his face light up! Thanks for sharing all these moments with me! XOXO Michele
WOW! Enough said.
