about 3-4 months ago we – lost Ben Michael’s glasses. Reluctant to buy another pair- I kept going with the theory “they will turn up”. He is usaully really good about putting them up so they don’t stepped on etc- so I could not imagine what could have happened to them! anyway, I finally broke down- but instead of going downtown and dropping another $200 on a 3 year old who’s presicription will probably change 10 times in the next 5 years- I found a website- $39glasses.com or something like that- so cheap I aslo got him prescription sunglasses! ok, a little overkill- you may ask how do you buy glasses on line? not very well- as i learned! the frames are cute- but too small for his head- but i just thought- if he wants to see- they will have to do!! and i am always worried i did not get the pupil measurement right?? well the day that UPS delivered them, i am talking to our day care provider on the phone – where the kids go during school and have not been all summer- “did Ben Michael lose his glasses?” UGGGGHHH!! YES , I said!!!
She says, “They have been sitting on the bedside table in the room he takes a nap in, I just have not been in there all summer because I don’t have any kids taking naps!!” For the record i did ask- when they first time they turned up missing!!
Michael was so proud, see how responsible he is?, he did not lose them, he just took them off for a nap!!
so the good news, is he has his blue spongebob glasses back, the ones that actually fit his head- and were measured by a professional- (there is a reason those other glasses are only $40!!)he is so excited to i think he slept in them last night! they were with a sitter last night- so i did not put him to bed, but when he came in my room this morning they were on his face!! what horrible parents we are, he has been seeing a blurred world the last 4 months! i even convienced myself the doctor was wrong and he could see fine!! i kept telling michael he’s not complaining- and he can see things when I ask him- we even play what shape is that cloud? but i guess it is more me coming up with the animals them him! his animals are always a little blurred!! next, problem is that Eli wants glasses, everyone else has them-why not him. My neighbor gave him some old sunglasses and the $40 pair fits him great- only one problem- he can’t walk with them on- now his world is blurred!! but he sure does love wearing them!
