Something a little bit different tonight

I want to write a post about Beau and his new top. Not diabetes related, but MY GOODNESS I am exhausted re diabetes. Verrrrrrry rough week or so. Last night and Saturday night in particular were horrid. And actually Sunday, when he desperately didn’t want a site change to the point where I had to change it when he was asleep. So the exhaustion is real and if you see me, throw me a coffee and run 😂

Annnnnnyways.

A couple of weeks ago, Beau and I went to the mall to get Coops some new PJs. While we were in the shop, Beau was looking at the jerseys and found one he really wanted. I didn’t have the money that day, and they didn’t have his size, but I promised him I would get it online for him.

Here it is.

So, I ordered it.

Last night it arrived!

My goodness. Look at how happy he is!!!

(It was bedtime)

And so here I am. Heart happy that my baby boy is excited about his new jersey. And nervous about this ‘girls colour’ ‘boys colour’ bullshit.

Every single day, Beau changes his favourite colour. Some days it’s blue. Yesterday it was orange and purple. Last week it was ‘definitely green forever now.’ Sometimes it’s pink. I love that I never know what colour it will be on what day etc

I LOVE individuality. I am still learning how to raise these beautiful boys each and every day (mostly failing miserably if I’m honest) but I want them to be THEM.

Whatever that THEM might be (apart from rude, disrespectful or arseholes etc)

I can’t wait to see my gorgeous Beau Richie rocking his new top. He loves it. I love it. And I love him more than anything.

He even slept with it 💕

  1. Beau is glowing in his new top. It is really special that he is allowed to be himself and chose what he likes. Wish more people would be as honest. Thinking of you all and sending love and hugs from Aunty A xxxxx

  2. Love love love this post!

    Go Beau and mum for celebrating his individuality. Parenting is challenging and lovely to read your honesty and how you roll with the punches xx
