We survived (so far)!!


On May 5th, Ezra had his ginormous tonsils taken out along with his adenoids. The surgery went well and was over rather quickly. He was such a little trooper! The hospital was a children's hospital so everyone there did VERY well dealing with such a young guy. Everyone that was going to be in the operating room came in one at a time to meet Ezra and, more importantly, let him meet them. They told him about the gas mask they would be putting on him in the OR and even had a sample one for him to play with as we waited to go in. It was funny, they told him that it would get stinky and that he needed to growl the stinky air away (thus causing him to take deep breaths of the gas to knock him out). He hesitantly growled for practice into the mask. I then suggested that he sing "Hey Jude" into the mask which he was SO much more excited about. He sang it over and over again and loved the attention the nurses were all giving him! When surgery time came around he was all ready to preform for all in the OR. He sang and everyone LOVED it. After the surgery the doctor even said, "I have been doing this a LONG time and that is THE cutest thing I have EVER seen!" THAT'S MY BOY!! Ezra is now recovering and refuses to ever go back to the hospital!
