The tubes are in. Elliot was a rock star through the whole thing. The staff at Children's Hospital is always notable. Extra loving, efficient, and thoughtful. And excuse me for bragging, but Elliot is a charming boy, and in typical fashion, forged relationships with so many folks, even though we were only there for 4 hours.
It did turn out that he needed some of his adenoids "shaved." That just sounds like nails on the chalkboard to me. The surgeon It's comforting to know that he did have a situation back there that was affecting his ENT. Hopefully, things will be better for him.
Right now he's sleeping off the anesthesia. I'm hoping he'll be 100% to celebrate Jamie's birthday tomorrow.
Thank you all for your good thoughts, prayers, and chants.

Los Pininos
We were looking for just the right name to capture the joy and struggle in balancing all the parts of our lives here in New Orleans, with our children, family, work, and selves.
I couldn't help but think of Elliot working on his balance, and Tita (my mom) standing him up, gazing in his eyes, and slowly letting go, screaming "Pinino!" Sometimes he'd stand for a few, others he'd crash down...Whatever the outcome, Elliot's response was half-fear, half-thrill and all smiles.
I'd like to think that's how we face our daily lives.
We are Los Pininos.
To the rescue!

Was thinking about you guys today. Glad everything was easy and as expected.
We will be home on Tuesday. Enjoying the Montana weather and the mountainous views.
Emmy, my prayers will be with that precious angel......I can't believe how old he looks. PLEASE send me a new picture of him when you get a new one. The kids pray so hard for him, he is in their heart every day. You need to know that, he is prayed for with such reverence, you wouldn't believe.
Take care girlfriend. Love from Folsom, Me
Good news.
