Oldest Daughter: Mom, I am out of insulin.
Me: OK. Do you need my help?
Oldest Daughter: No. I got it.
Me: Great!
Ten more minutes....
Oldest Daughter: Mom, I forgot. I have to change my pump battery.
Me: Alright. Did it just alarm?
Oldest Daughter: Yes, but it happened earlier too.
Me: OK. Do you need my help?
Oldest Daughter: No. I got it.
Later that night...
Oldest Daughter: Mom. My site came off in the shower.
Me: Oh-oh. Well, let's get a new one. Do you need my help?
Oldest Daughter: No. I got it.
She's eleven and suddenly, she's got it.
I couldn't be more proud.
Now to make sure she knows that she doesn't have to carry it alone.
I got it too.
