Thank you for your prayers and warm wishes. Emmett's surgery was a bit later than planned, but it went marvelously. The G Tube was inserted - it's like another belly button on the left side of his tiny tummy. He woke up from the anesthetic and the nurses said he fussed for a moment and then quieted right down. All of us got in to see him for a few minutes. Then we left Alisha and Pam with Emmett while Rhonda and I got Josh settled into Ronald McDonald House for a couple of nights. We will force Alisha to leave Emmett and come over for a few hours.

You have to know, Emmett's eyes are still as brilliant and alert as ever. He was busy checking us all out and ensuring that we were present and accounted for. He's an absolutely amazing baby. He puts me to shame - because I complain. Emmett doesn't complain. He simply loves his family.
