After a few weeks of dismissing Abbey's insisting that things were "blurry" at school as just a ploy to get the same glasses as her friend, I finally took her for an eye test. Turns out its a miracle she hasn't walked directly into a signpost or off the edge of something yet. She practically kissed the optometrist when he said she REALLY needed glasses. Partly because she can't wait to bring them to show-and-tell but mostly because she was right about being blind. "See Mom, I told you I needed glasses! I wasn't faking!" I am the worst mother in the world.
Of course she picked the purple frames with the trendy pattern on the inside (hard to see in the photo but they are very cool). For her free included prescription sunglasses she went straight for the pink aviators, "just like Mommy's". She is my kind of shopper, it took her about a minute and a half to complete the entire transaction.
