It’s Showtime! The nursery nativity is today so there’s an
awful lot of excitement in the house. Adam has been practicing his songs for a
couple of weeks now with all of the other children so we’re expecting a good
show. It’s going to be very busy in the hall so we’ve got to go and get our
seats soon, but not before we pop in to see Mrs Jess to ask her to take his BG a
little early today and give him a little something to eat if he’s 5 or below so
he’ll not feel funny during the show. Michelle said that they’ll be surprised if
his numbers aren’t in the teens with all of the excitement but I’ve promised a
little sprinkle of dust to add a little extra magic (can’t have old Rufus
showing me up).
That was brilliant! There were a couple of familiar numbers
and the Reindeer Hockey Pokey! That’s a new one on me but I quite liked it. “You
put your red nose in, your red nose out…” Tra la la! I was all for joining in
but Michelle said she didn’t want me to spoil steal the show. She’s
definitely warming to me, I can tell.
And even better my dust worked! He hovered around 9mmol all
through the show. Don’t all look so surprised now, I am a top level fairy you
know.
Friday is a busy day in this house, there’s barely time to
grab some lunch before we’re back out, this time for hip hop! I had no idea what
that was until I got to the dance studio and saw all of these little kids doing
their amazing moves. Adam took me in and I showed them all how to throw some
serious shapes - us professional fairies are all amazing dancers – but
thankfully it’s a closed class so Michelle couldn’t get in to take pictures and
give away all of my best moves in pictures. I did get a sticker
though!
No sooner are we back than it’s a quick run to pick up his
prescription – HOW many pages?! – then off to the swimming pool again . I can’t
figure out if these are people or fish! There’s no lesson today so Adam and
Michelle are just swimming for fun - and practice. Michelle is training for the
Swim22 in February – she’s not as good as Adam in my opinion – and Adam has
decided he wants to do it too. He explains that they are going to try to raise
money for DiabetesUK to “pay for the scientists to be able to keep trying to fix
my Diabetes”. I think this is a great idea and I told him that I’m sure that
he’ll be able to do it no problem but apparently 22 miles is a bit far for a
little person so he’s going to try 2.2.
Finally we’re home for the night. I’m definitely part of the
family now so I think I’ll just make myself comfortable in front of the fire and
get a little tipple and congratulate myself on the fine job I’m doing as an
ambassador for fairy-kind.
