four years later...

how is it possible that four years have gone by since brooks was diagnosed with ALCAPA?  thank God time flies when your having fun (and you're healthy), because that's what life is like with brooks.  i don't know what our lives would be like without this little ball of energy.  had you told me four years ago that you would never know he had open heart surgery i wouldn't of believed you.  how can you go from this...

to this super cute, never slows down, hot mess in just four years?

  

every once in a while he'll ask about the scars on his chest.  he'll say, is this where the doctor had to fix my heart?  and it immediately takes me back to the moment we found out something was very wrong.  how do you overcome such a sick heart at such a tiny age?  we didn't know what his future held for him at the time.  but look at him now, isn't he and his heart amazing?  

happy 4 year anniversary to your heart, brooks!
