Remember This Little Guy?






At 3 years old, Carson was a handsome little guy in glasses.  Bifocals, no less.  After eye surgery at age 4 to correct his eye muscles, Carson went back to a life without glasses.  

Before the school year began, I took Carson in for a routine eye exam.  At that time, he was borderline nearsighted.  It was so borderline, that the ophthalmologist said his vision did not warrant glasses.  For the past couple of months, Carson has complained a little that he could not see the white board in the front of his classroom.  Then on our trip to Texas over Christmas, we noticed that he could not read the departure/arrival board at the airport.  Mental note:  make an eye doctor appointment when we get back to California.  

Yesterday was that much anticipated eye doctor appointment.  After a thorough exam, it was decided that Carson needs glasses to correct his nearsightedness.  He is excited about wearing glasses, but a little nervous that the kids at school might make fun of him.  He has already expressed a desire to have glasses similar to Harry Potter.  What do you think?  Good fit?


One thing is for sure, he will be a handsome little boy regardless of what style of glasses we buy.

The best looking people in the world wear glasses. That's what I think when I look in the mirror every morning. he he I have heard a lot of kids say they want to wear glasses and get mad when they can't. So, Carson, you will be a handsome dude and a lot of kids will be jealous. By the way, Harry Potter glasses look really cool but I think I would 'down size' juat a little.

Love you tons!

Oh my goodness, he was so adorable at 3 and will be just as handsome with them now. Tell him that the Smith family fell in love with him when he had them the first time and we will love him with his new ones. We can't wait to see new pictures.
