We left the house early this morning, early enough to watch the sun rise, so we could go have the children's eye doctor check out the Nugget's eyes for a possible lazy eye. Luckily, we heard the phrase all parents hope for, "Perfectly healthy." While we need to keep an eye on the possibility due to other family members having "ocular issues," she is exactly where she should be at her age. No crazy far-sightedness that accompanies a lazy eye (most kids have a little at this age so they can grow into normal eyesight) and no real sign of one (they said sometimes it can appear that way at this age without really being there). They said it's possible she has a bit of one sometimes, but at this level she should grow out of it just fine. So, not only did we leave the office with a clean bill of health, we got Daddy to work on time (I'm so very grateful he came) and Miss Anni got stylish (above) sunglasses to wear out... she wore them all the way to the car and the ripped them off. She did manage to put on her own with she realized that even the grey day was too bright with dilated eyes.
I'm okay with the fact that I was a nervous, worried wreck last night... I hope every doctor's visit goes this well (except for the writhing, screaming child when getting her eyes dilated, that we can skip).
Happy Friday!
PS My hiatus from facebook has been AWESOME! I do miss some of the contact with my friends, but I've gotten so much work done... and done a whole lot less pointless surfing. Not saying I don't procrastinate at all... just less. Good to shake off that addiction.
I'm so glad everything worked out! She looks so chic in those sunglasses!
