I Can See Clearly Now......


Well not really. We went to the opthamologist and found out that Lizzie's right eye isn't working as hard as it should. So she has to wear glasses to "hopefully" get it where it needs to be. She is doing really well so far, but this is only day one and the glasses are still a new and exciting. We have a system in place and I hope it will work long enough for a habit to form. The doctor gave her a cute glasses case that looks like a purse, we hung it on the wall so we won't misplace it. Every morning she will wake up and put her glasses on and we replace them with several gold "chocolate" coins. When she won't wear them we take a coin out. Whatever is left she gets to eat before bed and then places her glasses back in the case. Wish me luck :)

Lizzie!!! We are twiners now. I have glasses too and I love how they help me see better! I can't wait to see you in a few months. I'll show you my glasses and I can't wait to see you in yours. Did you pick them out? They are very cute!

Lizzy looks so smart in her glasses! Abby thinks it's cool that other little kids wear glasses too.

Ella loves your new glasses, she keeps telling people, "Lizzie wears glasses", and she asks to see the picture of you wearing them.
