Ready for troubles...


New look!

A couple of weeks ago, we noticed that Adam was having a hard time seeing things at a distance. We tested him by holding some big titles and asking him to read the letters and we concluded that he was in much need on glasses!!

It was confirmed by the optometrist who gave him a prescription of -2.75 of both eyes... Poor Adam who has been deprived from clear vision these past few months. When he was tested at the pediatrician office in May, they said that his vision was fine. He spent a lot of time reading this Summer and the optometrist said it is not clear why his vision has changed dramatically in such a short time but it is not uncommon either.

Adam picked his everyday glasses and I picked his second pair (which he is wearing in the pictures above - the other pair has not arrived yet) and he was quite excited.

This is what he wrote to his teacher the day after he got them:
I finaly got my first pair of glasses yesterday afternon! When I went into the basment from my afternon rest, my mom wasen't there.My dad said she was getting a surprise.When my mom came dounstairs a litle case was in her hand.She told me to open it.When I opend it there was my first pair of glasses.They said I look older when I put them on.When my litle brother came dounstairs he was surprised to see me waring glasses.He said "what is that".I told him" it's my glasses".


Morning fun!!
