Field Trip with William



William and I ventured to the Seven Oaks dairy farm last week for his preschool class field trip. We enjoyed a tour of the farm via a trailer ride led by "Papa", an eighty++year old man missing 1/4 of his heart!!!! The aroma of the farm was indescribable. William needless to say did not enjoy the scents:) We got to see and pet a calf and watch all the high-tech equipment the farmers use now to milk their cattle. They did let the children try and milk from the utter if they wanted. William got a great squeeze with milk squirting everywhere. We had a blast!!!! They served all the children ice cream bars at the end of our visit. I had no idea how I was going to handle this, considering William has Type 1 diabetes. But the Lord was good! They had a 14gr carb orange dreamsicle. Right in Williams range for a snack!!!!!He got to finish out his field trip with ice cream just like his classmates.
