Garrett's surgery

Garrett has had a mucous cell on his lower lip for the past year or so. For those who don't know what that is, it is a bubble in the lip that forms from bursting a salivary gland. It doesn't usually go away unless you have is surgically removed. Jackson has had 3 of these lovely thing over the past eight years. Once they are old enough to hold still the doctor can do the procedure in the office but for the little ones they have to put them under. We decided that it was time to remove Garrett's so that he wouldn't have any problems with speech in school. It was also effecting his smile and so, it was time. He was a little nervous and cried when the anaesthesiologist took him back to the operating room but he did great once he was back there, from what I was told. He had a rough time in recovery. He cried a lot. I would cry too if I couldn't explain why I felt so funny and was in pain after being asleep. It has been a week and a half now and he is doing awesome. The stitches have dissolved and his lip looks amazing! He is very glad that it is finally gone.
