I decided to tell my kids a bit about the surgery. My husband didn't think I should. I explained to him, that I will be in the hospital for 2 nights. That is a little long for a grocery shopping trip. Talked to my boys 10 and 12 and explained what the dr would do, what my recovery would be like etc. No major reactions to it.

I spoke to my 8 and 5 year old girls tonight. I kept it more simple that I was going to the hospital to have a surgery to help me get healthy so I could do more with them. I explained how I eat will forever be different. My 5 year old pipes up so will you still use silverware. Love that girl.

That is sooo cute. Gave me a good laugh. I have 5 grandchildren ranging from 13 to 5. And, yes, that 4 yr old does come out with stuff like that, and that makes me laugh.

Thanks for sharing that one. lol

oops, i meant 13 to 4. Whatever...I'm always getting their ages wrong lol

will you still use silverware.
