Surgery
As some of you already know, Emma will be having surgery this coming Monday to remove a cyst. She was born with what is known as a brachial cleft cyst in her neck. It is basically a little pit that must run up into the sinuses because it drains mucous. It is not serious and the surgery is done primarily so that she will not go through life with mucous draining from her neck. According to the doctor, the procedure should only take ~20-30 minutes and she will hopefully be able to go home the same day. That being said, it will still be the longest 20-30 minutes of our lives. The good thing is that by getting it done now, Emma will have no memory of the surgery and shouldn't have much of a scar. Just please say some prayers for Emma on Monday.

We'll certainly keep you guys, especially sweet Emma, lifted up in prayers on Monday!
Without saying, sweet baby Emma will be in our thoughts and prayers as well as Mom and Dad who will be going through major anxiety! We love you.
