here today, gone tomorrow

After many years of deliberation, we decided it was time to nix the ginormous tennis balls Olivia had crowding her throat, causing her a nasaly voice and sore throat after sore throat (resulting in too many missed days of school at home driving mom nutty). She did great. She was very happy about the fun and attention beforehand!
She was all smiles as they rolled her off.
I wish I could say she looked as happy in recovery. But, many, many, many popsicles later, she is already improving and looking forward to a sore-throat free future! We are very proud of our brave little patient!

She is so cute in her hospital outfit! She is a brave one. Tell her we love her and hope that she gets to eat enough popsicles during recovery to build a human size bird cage out of the sticks. Hey, getting your tonsils removed has to be good for something!
