blossom (peonies)

January 14, 2011 Julia Ryan

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

— Anais Nin

Spring is almost here

say aloud

and repeat

Spring is almost here

I am so over this cold weather

We're headed to see Dr. Glazier at MUSC today for a cat-scan and laser scan of BabyGirl's head

Keep your fingers crossed that there has been adequate improvement and we can schedule her second surgery.

She's doing incredibly well, by the way.

When we're in the moment of our day to day routine I forget that our baby has a problem.

Then someone at the grocery store asks us about her helmet or the sweet lady in the nursery at Church asks us why we wrote "please be extra careful with her head" on the instruction sheet.

And we have to explain

Again.

I am just so ready to have this behind us.
And did I mention her first tooth broke through on Wednesday?
