Tonight at dinner for some reason Ellie and Max started joking about surgery. Max got serious right away and started talking about his ear tube surgery. He told us he fell asleep on Daddy and then woke up scared. It was sad. I hated that he had to wake up without one of us there. I reminded him that we came to him quickly. He looked at me seriously and said yes. Then he said, "We came to my house." He definitely remembers it all pretty clearly. It's funny that it's the first time he's talked about it nearly a month later.
To change the subject I told him Mommy would have surgery in a couple weeks to have his baby sister. I asked who he thought would hold my hand. His response, "I will Mommy." Isn't that just the sweetest thing in the world! He was so serious too. He takes my hand to try to help me often.
I told him that Daddy would hold my hand, and he seemed okay with that. Both of them needed to know I'd be okay and they'd see me later. Ellie remembers this went okay when Max was born, so she's not worried.
They are so cute. It's so fun to have these little conversations with them and try to understand what is going through their heads.
