The kids go back to school this coming Wednesday! Monday will be spent running around to various appointments trying to get those last minute things done. Tuesday, Hannah and I will go see a movie, most likely ParaNorman, and Wednesday it all begins! It seems like they go back earlier and earlier each year. I can’t believe I will have a 5th grader and a junior in high school!
Back-to-School can be a challenging time for kids with Celiac Disease. In the past I have sent a letter to Jon’s teachers making them aware of his diet and what may happen should he unknowingly consume gluten. If you have an older child following the gluten-free diet, make sure to check out this article I wrote for the Gluten Freely blog. A few additional links to more back-to-school information:
