It sure has been hot in Chicago this week, but nothing holds a candle (no fire pun intended) to Jessica + Rashaan when it comes to heat! Look at these two!!! Photography: @cristinagphoto As seen in @munaluchibride #chicagowedding #chicagoweddingplanner #engagementphoto #sqnevents

Happy Anniversary, S+J! Today we celebrate you AND

Happy Anniversary, S+J! Today we celebrate you AND the reopening of dance floors! 😉💃❤️ We worked together for a year during the height of the pandemic and imagined every possible scenario. We developed multiple floor plans, timelines, and “wish lists” — plus a rain plan for each! But it all came together beautifully on a sunny day (albeit a very hot one for early June!) and you were able to celebrate with ALL of your guests and dance the night away! But what I loved most, was that all along you said you would get married on June 5, 2021 whatever the scenario. Whether it was going to be just the two of you and the Rabbi, or 100 guests, or anything in between, it was going to happen. Happy, happy anniversary you two! Photography: @cristinagphoto

Six years ago today I took my daughter to the pedi

Six years ago today I took my daughter to the pediatrician to get her checked out before leaving for her 8th grade trip to Washington, D.C. She had been feeling tired and was really thirsty so I wanted to make sure she was ok to travel. She didn’t have a fever, runny nose, sore throat or anything, so I assumed she wasn’t contagious. I thought maybe I’d have to go as a last-minute chaperone so the school would feel more confident allowing her to attend.   Within 10 minutes of arriving, we were told that she had Type 1 Diabetes and we had to immediately go to Lurie Children’s Hospital to have her treated for DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis) because she was in danger of going into a coma, or worse.  The screams and sobbing from my daughter were the worst sounds that I’ve ever heard and I truly hope no other parents have to hear such agony from their own child. Over the past six years, I have watched my daughter overcome her fear of needles and blood, wear two not-so-inconspicuous devices proudly instead of hiding them under her clothes, advocate for herself, and grow up faster than other teens because she had to in order to live.  She is my hero and I know that I don’t tell her that enough. They call people with T1D “warriors”, and that’s exactly what she is.  Warning Signs of Type 1 Diabetes: - Excessive thirst - Frequent urination
- Lethargy
- Rapid weight loss  If you or a loved one is experiencing any of these symptoms, go to a doctor or ER and demand a blood glucose test. Also, Type 1 Diabetes is an autoimmune disease. It has nothing to do with one’s lifestyle or even genetics. T1Ds do not need to avoid sugar or carbs - in fact, they need them in order to survive when their blood glucose is low. #themoreyouknow *Her glass is filled with sparkling grape juice.
