200th Post!

Today is the 200th post on "Peanut Allergy Kid!" Woo Hoo!! (Actually, I think yesterday's was but I have a very sick kid so humor me here!) Who knew one person could so much to say about a peanut allergy!

I just want to thank everyone who reads the blog. Were it not for you, I would not continue to write this blog. The emails of readers that tell me how much this blog has helped them are what motivate me to continue to write. I absolutely love and cherish each email I receive.

I thought it would be fun since the blog is now 9 months old to go back and highlight some of my favorite posts. Here they are, in particular order:

*My kids remind me how I am a little crazy sometimes about food allergies.

*I actually am strong enough to handle a diagnosis with other food allergies.

*I am very optimistic about a treatment for PA someday soon.

*Tyler knows is slowly learning the importance of label reading. This is huge for him and me!

*PA can actually be funny!!

*Mr Peanut freaks me out.

*My PA kid reprimands me for even saying the word "nut."

*Thomas the Tank engine is peanut free and his conductor apparently has serious allergy issues!

*Food allergies truly can be something to sing about!

*I actually left the country for safe food. Crazy stuff...

*Guest blogger, Alexis talked about her fear of Epi Pens. This post still cracks me up!

*This post really made an impression on my husband.

*Two of my most popular posts were on ice cream and my emergency plan.

*I also loved a post from an 10 year old girl with a peanut allergy.

*Off all the posts I've written on my personal perspective of dealing with Tyler's PA, this one is my favorite.

I also want to thank a few people I met last night. We had our food allergy support group meeting that myself and another mom are now leading. Seeing the actual faces of some of my readers remind me of why I write this. I admit some of it is therapy for myself. But the rewards of helping others are absolutely incredible.

So to those of you I had the privilege of meeting last night, you guys are awesome and totally made my day!!
