Well, we realized this past Sunday that Elisabeth needed glasses. Kami overheard a conversation between Brenna and Elisabeth about not being able to read the words on the bulletin board. Beth said, "No one can read those words...." Well, at least no one who needs glasses! I have to admit, the timing financially was not the greatest but God is in control of everything and we found a pretty good package deal for the exam, frames and lenses.
So yesterday, the eye doctor examined Beth's eyes and said that she needed glasses right away and was shocked that she had to start her off at 1.75 for each eye. (I have no clue what the numbers mean.....???)
She found this very nice pair of glasses and she looks beautiful! She put on the glasses and was so amazed that she can read signs from far away and even said the colors look different now.....As a parent, we feel bad that we didn't notice earlier that she had a problem. She is an avid reader and will (if we let her) sit on the couch and read 2-3 full length books is one day!
We love you Beth! Welcome to the world of sight! (Oh by the way Beth, do not mis-place your glasses and whatever you do, do not let your little brother Silas get a hold of them!!!)
