pre-op

i'll write about the surgery and our whole experience when i have more time but i wanted to post this photo of thea in her hospital gown. it's possibly one of my favorite photos of her and the last picture i took before her cleft lip was repaired. she and her dad were all business that morning and it's as if she's thinking "let's just get this over with." if she had an idea of what was going to happen, she may have felt differently.

thea looks so much like zack to me in this photo. it's the first time i've seen such a resemblance...the expression, especially, is so zack.
