A year ago today

A year ago today you had your first open heart surgery. I remember waiting the 13 days from your birth to today, wondering every day when your surgery would happen. It seemed everyday someone else was sicker and needed to come first, which was good that you weren't as bad off yet the anticipation still built. Then the day finally came. You were in the OR for 12 hours. 12 HOURS!!! 12 hours of wondering, waiting, questioning. Finally you were out and we could see you. You came out on ECMO though, a hear-lung machine. Last year we sat at the hospital waiting, this year we spent the day together running errands. A year makes such a difference. You are doing so well and doing so much!
