Do You Hear What I Hear?

Addie had an appointment today that confirmed what we have all been thinking around here. She has lost the hearing in her right ear again. The last time they put tubes in her ears (about a year and a half ago) that seemed to do the trick. It did not surprise us to hear that the tube in her right ear was gone. The doctor thinks the best choice is to replace the tube (and check out the left one) as soon as possible. This all to say that Addie will be undergoing surgery on the 21st. Although it is a fairly common surgery, it is surgery none the less, and she is my baby. There is nothing so sobering as holding your little one in your arms, limp from the anesthesia. It's a scary thing for me.
Please keep Addie in your prayers! Once the tubes are in, we will know for sure when she is just disobeying as apposed to not hearing us. :)
While you say a prayer for Addie, maybe you can say one for me too.
"Cheese, Momma!"
