My totally tubular dude

In the midst of his sixth ear infection in five months, Ben and I met with the ENT doctor yesterday to discuss tubes. The frequency of infections combined with half of winter looming in front of us and the fact that Ben's on the cusp of learning to walk and talk (both of which depend on well functioning ears), led Dr. Goodson to encourage tubes sooner than later. And "sooner" means Monday morning!

While we know this is a low-risk and common, outpatient procedure, we do ask for your prayers that 1. Ben will stay healthy enough through the weekend to have it done and 2. that things will go smoothly so that our Christmas travels to Nashville, then Canada will be medically uneventful. :)
