Daughter update

Maddy came through with flying colors, and minus some kind of growth that was on her jaw.  Also minus two permanent teeth, but with two baby teeth the surgeon hadn't reckoned on keeping.  Would you believe you can keep your baby teeth as long as you want them if there is no permanent tooth below it? 

Suffice it to say that we're praising God for both a successful surgery (the whatever was benign), and that the surgeon was able to save us a bundle on orthodontia (if the baby teeth had gone, she would have required quite a bit of it).  Now to get some rest; 6am "arrive times" in Rochester are not exactly fun for the driver.
