the big day

i talked to mom at 5:45 this morning since i didn't get to talk to her last night.

she's getting ready for the early morning surgery. she said she laughed at our answering machine message (syd said "play with you" instead of "pray for you," for example).

she was upbeat for the short conversation until the end. of course, i made her cry.

can't wait to hear how she's doing when it's over.
