💚 It’s Celiac Disease Awareness Day and I wanted to share something I’ve noticed as my son has gotten older. It’s really special and I hope that it’s something more families can experience if we spread more awareness.

My son was diagnosed in 2020 at 5 years old. Being gluten free is all he remembers now. But that also means it’s all his friends remember too.

To them, it isn’t strange.

It isn’t something that needs explaining.

It’s just… him.

And honestly, that has been such a gift. I hope that more kids can have this experience because having Celiac Disease is hard enough.

🧡 As his mom, I can’t take celiac disease away. But I can celebrate the moments when he gets to forget about it. Today we were invited to host a gluten free party at BIBIBOP Asian Grill to celebrate National Celiac Awareness Day!

They had the cutest table set up for us and hats and bags for all of our guests. Of course, we brought my son’s biggest supporters along!

We filled our cups with our favorite lemonades (we like to mix multiple flavor together!) and then the sweetest staff brought out the 100% gluten free feast! The Korean crispy chicken was immediately devoured as everyone’s favorite topping!

On September 13th, National Celiac Awareness Day, BIBIBOP is giving a portion of their proceeds up to $2,500 to National Celiac Association.

Here’s to more awareness, more safe food, and more reasons to celebrate!!

Heading back to school with a kid that has Celiac Disease or dietary restrictions? 📚 I created a FREE template to help make explaining your child’s needs easier. We use it for my son with Celiac disease but you can customize it to other food allergies or restrictions.

We haven’t felt the need for a 504 Plan but it’s definitely something to look into if you feel you need more support at your school.

A lot of people aren’t familiar with Celiac Disease so our school really appreciated this. It helped them better understand it as well as help to keep my son safe. Add your child’s info, print it out, then take it with you to meet the teacher and pass it out to any teacher your child will interact with as well as the school nurse.

Fill a Ziploc bag labeled with your child’s name for the teacher to keep on hand. This is for those random surprise birthday treats and random food that show up with no warning!

Talk to your school about what gluten-free lunches can be provided. We chose to pack our own lunch, but some schools have some really great options if you ask.

Here’s the template! https://www.canva.com/design/DAGNZ1xBz60/Mob-ts6p27ZNC6NVtJcnRw/view?utm_content=DAGNZ1xBz60&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=publishsharelink&mode=preview
