Papa Has An Owie!

My poor has been enduring chronic foot pain for the past couple of years, so today he finally had foot surgery. He is hoping that this surgery will heal him and help him not be in so much pain. I am happy to report that the surgery went well and that my dad is resting at home.


My dad will be at home recovering for the next couple of months. The doctor mentioned that he could be out of work for 3-4 months. He will have to wear a walking boot and stay off of his feet for at least 6 weeks. Poor Guy! If I know my dad...we are going to have to strap him to the couch to keep him down.

Elizabeth has been very concerned about her Papa. She walks around saying "Papa has an owie" and "Don't touch the owie". She won't even let my dad touch it! She is doing a great job of taking care of him. She makes sure that he has his ice pack at all times. She even hands Papa his crutches when he tries to stand up.

As you can see, Elizabeth has found a way to still snuggle with her Papa.
