Aubrey had her 6 month check up today and while most of the exam went normally, at the end, our pediatrician said he noticed asymmetrical fat rolls on her legs. This is a soft symptom of hip dysplasia and, to be on the safe side, he thought we should get some x-rays.
Suddenly, I had a change in perspective on things. God has given me so much to be thankful for: a loving husband and family, a warm home, a closet full of clothes, a full belly, and two beautiful and healthy children. Why is it that it takes something like this to make me grateful?
We took her to get the x-rays, and about 2 hours later, the pediatrician's office called to say that everything is normal. I guess one leg is just fatter than the other ;)
Today, I'm extra thankful to my Creator for giving me so much!
So glad she's okay! It was great to see you the other night. We'll have to get the girls together to play sometime!
