• My son

  Aaron had heart surgery today.  He had Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome.  It caused his heart to do extra beats or something, it was electrical in nature.  They had to go in and "zap" his heart and basically burn the heart muscle in a couple of places to get it to work properly.  It went well and he is okay now.  It is scary to have someone you love so much have heart surgery.  No matter how "minor" the doctor says the surgery is it is still major to me. The condition was not causing him any problems right now but the doctor said his was serious enough that it would definitely cause some problems when he was around 50 or so.  Better to take care of it now rather than later.
  

  I watched the kids today and last night.  I had planned on taking them to Jill's friend's house today but Otto got very worried about his dad when he found out he was not coming home today.  I just couldn't send him off to another house when he was so worried.  I canceled my choir practice and decided to keep them again tonight.  Tomorrow I will take them to Bible study and they will head home in the afternoon or stay with Hannah while I go to my dentist appointment.  It is no problem.  Love these kiddos and I think it is better for Otto to stay with grandma than with a non-family family tonight.  He is such a little worry-wart.
