It can't be boiled down to a brief blog entry. The love, appreciation and admiration I have for Ruthie has surpassed already soaring heights. We've been through the ringer this year, no one feeling that more profoundly than her. From the shot to the gut of hearing for the second time that your child has rare heart disease to the anxiety of a high risk delivery to anticipation for open heart surgery. Intense - not to mention being on the front line for care of that baby along with her wild 3.5 year old sister. I married an amazing woman - who has taught me more than I can ever teach her. Don't think I let a day go by without acknowledging her kindness and care. Tell me I'm not fortunate for marrying a former cardiac rehab therapist who can interpret trips to the cardiologist for me.
With just outside of a week prior to surgery I credit her determination with the outstanding condition that Kelly is in. Mark that up there with the many things I am indebted to her for. Looking back at this year, many years into the future, it will no doubt go down as one of the most difficult in my life, though also one of the most profound, thanks to her. Ruthie - I love you baby - and will never forget the great gifts you've provided to me through our girls.

She is amazing, and so are you Scotty. Best of luck with procedure. I'm sure all will be fine.
