So I still might be a little-man, but I've got a man-sized scar!  You see, I was born with Sagittal Synostosis.  The sutures in my head fused early and forced my head into an elongated shape.

My mom and dad decided to get my head fixed so it would be nice and round instead of kinda football shaped.  I'm glad they did because I heard that if I hadn't had the surgery, I would not have been able to wear a normal helmet to play football or ride a motorcycle, and now I can.  My dad says I can't own a motorcycle until I'm 40!  

Mom and Dad heard that surgeons at the Children's Hospital in Denver did a LOT of Cranial Synostosis surgeries.  Apparently, it's more common than I thought.  They told us that they've performed over a thousand surgeries over the past 17 years. 

Anyway, they did a good job on me!  I've got a sweet scar, and you can hardly see it under my hair.  My head is nice and round, if not a little on the big side (thanks Dad!)
