On the 8th, I meant to talk about Alex. It was his 15th birthday! Time passes so quickly. We were so scared when he was born, because he was born with a kidney ailment called Hydronephrosis. He also had to go back into the hospital for a few days when he was 4 days old because he had severely jaundiced. He was pretty sickly for awhile and he had surgery on his kidney when he was only 9 weeks old. I still remember his little face when the nurse carried him away to the operating room. It was so heart wrenching. We had to see the pediatric specialist every year for 5 years. Thankfully, the problem was corrected and he is doing great. He is a freshman at Highland High. He is on the JV volleyball team and he is 1st counselor in the Teacher's Quorum. He is a wonderful boy who is very affectionate. We love him so much! I guess I ought to explain this picture. I saved it from the Disney cruise. We were on the Disney Cruise in November for Thanksgiving. Alex decided to choose lobster for his Thanksgiving dinner instead of turkey!
