BIFOCALS
Last year Tyler brought a note home from school saying he'd failed his vision test at school and I should go get his eyes tested. I asked Tyler if he wanted to get glasses and after he cried I decided to just blow it off; afterall, he seemed to still be able to see just fine. A few weeks ago I asked him to read something for me and saw that he needed to squint his eyes to see it. This reminded me of that letter and decided maybe it was time to take action. So last week we took him in and sure enough the boy is near sighted and needed a prescription. Yesterday his glasses finally came in and he was so excited to see the world. One of the first things he said was, "Wow, that's a mountain! I always thought it was a cloud!" I didn't know whether to cry or smile. I only have one problem with his glasses--he looks so old!

They do make him look grown up, but I think he's very handsome! I think I'm going to need glasses soon. I keep getting paranoid about it. I know it will be ok, but I hope I look as good as Tyler does if it ever happens :)
You do look more grown up Tyler...and even smarter!
Okay....so really....in Rialto, you can live there for like 6 months and NOT know that there are mountains near you! Unless the air quality has gotten better since I moved! Glad he can enjoy the mountains! I wonder what he thought about seeing the same clouds every day!
Now not only is he smart, but he even looks more the part! Very handsome!
Good choice of glasses. You look really handsome Tyler. Yay you can see(:
Too hilarious... That's that same exact thing that I said when I first got my glasses.... at 19..lol.. For me, it was the mountains in the north... Too cute though. And he does look all grown up now...
I knew my kids would be destined you have glasses since both my parents did, my siblings and my husband as well. I was hoping to hold off too knowing what teasing I took wearing glasses since second grade. Well he made it to third grade, after many headaches. The moment he put them on I saw the biggest smile I have ever seen on his face being able to see things clearly. I can just hope that kids are different these days. So far he hasn't mentioned any comments. Your son looks great!
PS...I think my son got the same glasses. They cost only $40 at Walmart lenses and all!!! At that price I got two just in case :)
