Glasses

Okay. So, we have set our DVR to record every single "I Love Lucy" episode ever made, and on days when all our school is completed, and we are really needing a break, we watch a "new" episode. It's in black and white, so I figure, the view is a little grainy, so I think nothing of it when Justin really wants to sit close to the t.v. In the middle of hilarious laughter, Justin came back to the couch to sit with me,maybe 10 or 13 feet from the set, to snuggle with mommy, of course! I was no longer able to pay attention when my sweet boy said, "Mom, I don't get it. Is she happy or mad? I can't tell if she is smiling or frowning." Uh oh...Well, he does seem to have a hard time staying focused when he is in a big setting, like soccer, or class, but I thought that was just because he is a seven year old boy. At our first chance, we went to the optometrist, and when the doctor came out, he handed me the prescription and emphatically stated "He will see so much better now!" I had no idea! Now that I know he needs glasses, I can think back and see the signs. We picked up his glasses today at Costco. When he put them on, he looked around and exclaimed, "Woah!" He was so happy to be able to see better! It was so fun to watch him looking around at everything. He is seeing the world in a whole new way!
