We're the kind of parents that if we can afford to do something the kids have asked to do then we will do it, within reason
We've done the xfactor tour and we did 'jingle bell ball' just before Xmas. So when the kids asked to go to 'summer time ball' it seemed natural to book the tickets. After all they don't stay young forever, we want them to have amazing memories to share in years to come, as all too soon they'll be too old to be doing things with mum and dad.
A week tomorrow we will be making the 190 mile journey to London for the weekend. A journey I have played out several times in my head. I have check lists for everything and then reminders to check those check lists yet my head is spinning all the time in case we forget something. This is the first time we'll have been away from home since our daughters diagnosis .
I know we have this 'in the bag', I know we have covered every eventuality. This is a weekend where the focus needs to be on both kids, their love of music just like before and not on diabetes, but to be honest I'm scared to death of the 'what if's'
