Waiting for Frank to get out of back surgery. This is hopefully the beginning of a life free of back pain for him. The road to recovery will be long and we are looking forward to the destination.

We have been explaining to Miles what to expect when he comes home from the hospital and that he will need to rest in his bed a lot. Of course he has been asking why? about everything. He asked if Papa can run fast (this is somehow important to him). "He can run fast now but after the surgery he won't be able to run fast for a while until he gets better." " But I want Papa to run fast!" Tears started filling his eyes. "You don't need to get upset Miles, Papa will be all better very soon." "But I want him to run fast! I am not upset, I just have water in my eyes."

I know it's going to be hard for Miles to understand that Papa will need uninterrupted rest and won't be able to read books all day long to him, or play dogies, or dinosaurs.

Some pictures from the last few weeks:
