Boy Who Wears Glasses

In Illinois, entering kindergarten generates a lot of paperwork. Birth certificates, immunization lists, doctor's notes, and eye exams. Really? An eye exam? It sounds like something an optometrists' marketing group thought up. Perhaps it is, but the school nurse said she'd have to kick Jude out of school in October if he didn't have an eye exam.

We discovered that Jude has an astigmatism in one eye. It is easily corrected with glasses and there's a good possibility that he will grow out of it.

Jude is perfectly pleased to wear glasses. He really only needs them for reading and writing but puts them on any time the mood strikes.

Just when I thought he could not get any cuter...


Curls AND glasses. I'm a lucky mom.
