Lily's first day of preschool was Wednesday. Lily LOVED it. Her teacher said she talked to her and was telling her all about Peepaw being at the hospital. I told the teacher that she would talk to her all day every day, all year. The teacher was excited because she said some kids don't talk all year long. (Reminds me of my childhood friend....sorry, Em, just had to throw that one in there!)

Matt's dad had heart surgery yesterday. He is finally coming out of it today and seems to be doing as well as can be. He is pain, but because it took him so long to come out of the anesthetic/sedation meds, they won't give him many pain meds until he can swallow them. He is in ICU and has very limited visitation. I have not been in to see him, but Matt and the brothers have. He is with it just enough to have a little conversation.

Most of the family has spent their days at the hospital. I have visited a couple of times, but don't stay long, as I have Lily to contend with. I don't want her to be in the hospital too long.
