Recovering Quickly

Just wanted to tell all of you thank you for praying for Dakota and her surgery. She is doing awesome! The whole time leading up to it she kept saying, "when is it, I want to get this over with". Well the day came yesterday and she was cracking us up the whole time in the waiting room in her "scrubs" acting like a little old man! Anyways, she went back to the O.R. with a smile on her face looking forward to the cotton candy air she got to breath in through the mask. They repaired her right inguinal hernia orthoscopically. She has a small incision below her belly button. It was only a 20 minute procedure but we didn't see her for about an hour and a half. They give her time to wake up, etc. Now that we've been home almost 24 hours it's been a challenge for her to relax and rest. She had a couple visitors and wanted to play. Luckily she slept all night and hasn't really had any pain. She'll return to school Monday and will still have to take it easy. So again, thank you for all your thoughts and prayers!
