Caleb's Tonsilectomy

We got to Children's South about 9:45. We were taken back immediately and put in his room. There was a fish on the door with his name on it. He thought that was really cool. He had to change into his gown and then we talked to the nurse. She told him they had a Buzz Lightyear spaceship mask and he got to pick out the flavor smell he wanted for the giggle gas. He chose cotton candy(he really is my son). They came and got him soon after that. He was such a big boy and walked down the hall with the nurse and didn't even look back. Thank goodness 'cause his momma was bawlin'. About 45 minutes later he was back with us. He was so big and brave. I was really proud of him. I just held and rocked my baby. He has had a good couple of days and he has been a trooper. The doctors and nurses were wonderful and took care of my baby when he wasn't with me. One of the best hospital experiences I have ever had. Thank you for all your prayers.
