Shout out to this amazing boy!

Today is a bittersweet day at the Cabin. 
As I take a moment to write this post on June 28th (9:00 am) 
  I'm reminded of that morning, three years ago today it was a scary and horrible day.
It was the Hemmer Family Week at the Cabin, 
The setting was exactly the same....
Our family up for another morning of breakfast, getting ready for another
 day full of swimming, squeals, giggles and great memories, 
but something wasn't right with Carson, our (barely) four year old grandson.

3 years ago today, Carson was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.

I refuse to get into the details of that morning as it make my heart heavy. 
Instead I will brag on a little boy who is the bravest and strongest little guy in the world. 
He is amazing in every way, he puts up with countless needle sticks and pokes,
blood sugars that go high and low that make him feel crappy,
 and just so many restrictions that no little boy should have to endure.
But he does!
Diabetes rages on in his body, 
but you would never know it by his sweet personality and go-with-the-flow attitude. 
He is our Hero, and he is amazing, he is a normal boy in every sense of the word.
He kicks butt in soccer, he is smart, brave and so, so handsome.
He is kind and sensitive, he's happy and full of spunk. 
He is Carson my Hero
We love you so much Carson
We celebrate YOU today buddy
