Momma said there would be days like this....

I remember Momma telling me that she knew that God made Neall and I perfect since she couldn't have handled anything else. I know what she meant. Yesterday morning, we showed up at 530 to get our girl tubes in her ears and to get her adenoids removed. It almost did me in. To see her in a hospital gown almost was more than I could take. There is no good reason that they should have to make hospital gowns that small. I sat there and thought of our friends that have been through so much more: Ginger that saw her son go through so many tests at St. Jude and Michelle that is at St. Jude's now going through treatment with Garrett. I cannot imagine how they are doing and have done it. I see my girl, going through a simple procedure and it almost was too much for me.



We brought our sweet girl home and she was swollen and doped up and we thanked God that we had her in our arms. Her Aunt Becca and Uncle Neallio and Sol came to visit her to tell her to get well soon and it was so very, very sweet. I thought they were in Memphis anyway but when I realized they came only to see her, it brought tears to my eyes. She is such a lucky girl to have so many people that love her. Her AunTee came to visit too and then on Saturday, Papa Richie came to visit. She is back to her normal self and playing today and we just kiss and love her even more than normal.
