surgery

akaiya had an appointment with her opthamologist yesterday. i was unable to take her so my mother was kind enough to bring her to the doctor. we have been talking about doing surgery on her right eye for ptosis for awhile. when she was younger he put it off b/c she was so small. then when she got older he told us that b/c of her condition it would be an elective surgery. i don't know what changed his mind (maybe b/c he walked into the office and the first thing he said was "now what's going on with this droopy eyed girl?") so kaiya will be going under the knife. i have mixed feelings about the whole thing...i know that her vision is really important, and i know that this is a very minor surgery. i just don't like the idea that my baby will be in any kind of pain :( we'll probably schedule the surgery for the beginning of june. i want to let her finish out the school year first.

I love checking in on your beautiful girl and seeing what "trouble" she's gotten into :-) Just remember your doing the best that you can for your princess..stop by and check out Alyssa. Many times when I think of Alyssa having a future I think of Akaiya or Annabel, both girls give so much hope to me.
