Today was the day that Thomas went to get his “See to Learn” eye exam. So we got there early and decided to try on glasses. We have been thinking that some day both the kids will need glasses so we try them on whenever we have a chance. He tried on as many as he could before they called him back for his exam.
So we went back and he got up in the big chair. We talked about the Doctor and how he knows Mimi and Uncle Mike and Mommy even goes to the same doctor. Then Dr. Malon came in and Thomas was great. Then they dialated his eyes and it was down hill from there.
So long story made short, Thomas needs glasses. He is far sided with a lazy eye, takes after his mom. I have always expected it but it still made me cry. Thomas on the other hand was really excited to pick out glasses. He went in, picked the pair he liked and wouldn’t budge. They were the memory steel expensive ones and looked great on him. So that is what we got him (lenses were free on special right now). So this time next week, Thomas will have new glasses. Here is a sneak peak……..
Thomas is a very smart little boy. He is also a very loving boy. He will keep his parents young just keeping up with him all through his life. Shannon, you will have a very special and close bond with your son always and you will treasue that.
