Eyes

This summer at Jacob's kindergarten screener, we discovered that he needed a follow up appointment with an eye doctor.  It didn't come as much of a surprise since Nathan and I both wear glasses (Nathan since 4th grade and me since college).  Of course, it's not as easy as just popping by an eye doctor and we had many hurdles to jump (like getting locked out of the house and car on the day of our first appointment) before we finally made it to his appointment on our day off from school.  After only a few short minutes, it became abundantly clear and Jacob does, in fact, need glasses.  He was fitted with frames and we were told to come back in 6 months for a follow up.  Thankfully, he is actually excited about his new glasses (he told me he's the first person in his class to get glasses!) and we just hope he continues to see it as a positive thing and not something to be embarrassed about.
