Grandma had some reconstructive knee surgery this past week & after a setback at the hospital, we are so happy to say she is on the road to recovery & doing well! She has quite a bit of rehab ahead of her but is in good spirits & willing to tackle it so that she can walk better.
While she was in the hospital, we took the kids up for a BRIEF visit. They had made her pictures and wanted to check on her themselves. Knowing their attention-span, the Mr. and I took seperate vehicles so that I could cut and run when Jack started hanging from the IV pole or some other very possible scenario and he could stay & visit a little longer. As the kids & I were leaving, I thought it would be a good time to give them a little tour of the OB wing so they'd know where I was in a couple of weeks. We went around, me saying "Here's the room where they'll take me to get the baby, here's a room like what I'll be in," etc., winding around to the nursery.
Finally, we are at the nursery looking at all the little babies. I hold Macy up for a peek, then Jack. He didn't say much, just looked and looked. Finally, he says to me in a dramatic whisper "Momma, which one is our Ava?" Man, I wish it was so easy-just go pick her out at the nursery!!! I love his innocence, trying to figure out how things happen.
Two weeks from this Thursday & we'll get to go "pick her up"!
