She is 4 and 70lbs? (sigh)

My 4 year old (will be 5 in November) weighs 70lbs. She wears size 10 in girls. She was born w/ a hole in her heart, but this is not supposed to have anything to do w/ her health. I have expressed concern to her Pediatrition and we watched her food in take for months then we looked at her weight and height and he felt that the concern had leveled out and that she would too. She is a very "solid" little girl, but it just sometimes makes me sad. No one in my family is over weight so I am especially concerned for her. I just would like some comfort in knowing that some where out there someone has been through this same thing and can offer me some relief or suggestions.
