Tiny A's heart!

Okay, so Tiny A has the sweetest heart ever, but this post is about her heart and its troubles. She was born with 3 holes in her heart and has been seeing a cardiologist since she was 1 week old. So far things have been great. Two holes closed up on their own and the 3rd became small enough that it should not cause her any problems.. So when she was 2 years old she was cleared as healthy and that we did not need to return unless our pediatrician felt otherwise. Well I took her last month for her 4 year old check up and our doctor noticed she had an irregular heartbeat.. It was off enough that we were sent back to the cardiologist... More ultrasounds of her heart were done and she was sent home with a heart halter to wear for 24 hrs. It was fun the first day. But was completely itchy and miserable the 2nd day as we waited for 2:30 to roll around so we could take it all off. She was a trooper and made it through. We returned the halter and since we have not heard anything we are assuming it is like the cardiologist presumed and really not a big deal. We are praying that is so..

Emma had to wear one as well. The excitement wore off after the first day; she was supposed to wear it for a month. What a brave little girl...our prayers are with you all.
